It was time again for the annual Bible Parade this morning. All the classrooms designed their own costumes and masks to parade around the Cornerstone campus to the delight of their parents and guests.

Stamping for the Troops

A Christmas card stamp camp for the Delaware National Guard deployed to Iraq. Inspired by Ken Fowler, Sharon's husband, who was deployed earlier this month.

What is it? Making blank, stamped Christmas cards to send to the troops so they have something nice to send back to their loved ones at Christmas time.

When is it? Saturday, November 8th from 9:00am until 4:00pm.

Where is it? Shear Magic Hair Design II, Middletown Square Shopping Center, Middletown (Phone 302 378-0266).

No Experience Necessary!

No Creative Talents Necessary!

This is an open house. During Shear Magic II's working hours, we will ahve a room set up where you can stop by and help us make some Christmas cards to send ot our local troops serving in Iraq. If you have a hair appointment that day, please consider taking some time before or after to visit us. If you do not have an appointment, please stop by at any time during the days to donate your time.

You will want to be part of this remarkable experience. We have gotten tremendous response from the troops in the past and you will be amazed at how great it will make you feel to brighten the lives of men and women who are away from their families. Questions? Email Robert Jasinski or call the salon at (302) 378-0266.

There is no charge to participate, but donations are appreciated to offset the cost of supplies.
