Four-year-old Khamari Watkins, and Kamryn English, 6, sat in the backseat of great grandmother Alene Reeves’ car as she was handed backpacks filled with school supplies through her window.

The children also received free books and hygiene products Saturday during a back-to-school giveaway held for the first time by Bikers United for the Community, a recently formed group in Longview.

Vice President Cedric Stephens said the group formed three months ago and consists of local biker groups and others. He said the idea for Saturday’s event came after the group was brainstorming things it could do for area children.

“Most biker clubs, that’s what we do — we give back to the community,” he said. “That’s what our mission is.”
