Thank you to everyone who’s hard work made the Dress Up Drive and our Halloween Bash a success! We could not be more excited about the amount of costumes that were donated for the Boys and Girls Clubs in Warrenton and Cedar Lee; with more left over to go to the local churches!

I was about in tears to see the turn out on Friday night. Dress up and pretend goes hand in hand with childhood. Thank you all for making my little dream for all children to have the privilege of having a costume a reality this year!
