Princess for a Day

New Baltimore Parks & Recreation is organizing a Princess for a Day event on Friday, Sept. 30, from 5:30-8:30 p.m.

Behind this fun fundraiser is the belief that every girl deserves to be a princess for a day, including the earthquake victims in Haiti.

As a result parents are encouraged to sign up their little princesses, daughters ages 5-10, for an evening of making crafts and cards for girls in Haiti, enjoying a hair and nails makeover, a goodie bag, refreshments and appetizers, a magic show, plus a walk down the runway and other memorable fun.

Cost is $20 per child, and registration is limited to the first 60 tickets sold.

Please be sure to bring a pair of gently used tennis shoes, sandals or flip-flops which will be sent to the children of Haiti. The shoe drive ends Sept. 30.
