It is that time of year again when many of us are celebrating the holidays with laughter, cheer, joy, and family. I know many of us are going through our daily activities of buying presents for loved ones or staying busy at work. We are looking forward to spending quality time with family and friends during the holidays and through out the upcoming year. There are so many special activities that take place around the holiday season. How would you feel if you or your child were unable to participate in these activities because they were suffering from pediatric cancer? As you think about this question, I hope you will consider helping me raise funds for the St. Baldrick's Organization. As many of you know, I decided to get involved with this wonderful organization last year. I took the step, along with many other across the country, to shave our heads and stand in solidarity with those children that suffer from pediatric cancer. I have decided to honor a local child named Owen, because his mother was nice enough to close her salon and volunteer her time & staff to participate in last years event. These are tough economic times for all of us, but cancer doesn't rest and we still need to do our part. I hope I can count on your support. Thank you!
