Good day on this relatively cool Monday.

Parents rejoice and kids despair -- school is starting soon. For families, the back-to-school checklist can be overwhelming, so an event in Lansing today aims to help. Connect 4 Kids offers medical and personal services to prepare kids for the upcoming year, including hair cuts, eye exams, physicals, immunizations and more. Shoe and clothing vouchers are offered as well. It's not all business however -- REACH Studio Art is on hand with art activities and games. 10 a.m.- 3 p.m. Lansing Center, 333 E.
