Save the Date!

Hey everyone!

We have great news! Our troop has finally finalized the date for our official book release. It will be held at Magnolia Glen on Sunday, August 29th. We have not discussed times yet, but once we have those we will post them on here, Facebook, in the newspaper, notify by email, invitations, flyers, etc. We are so happy that we have finally reached this part of our project and are so much closer to releasing our beautiful tribute in order to raise lots of funds for the Abigail Grace Tsumas Memorial Foundation.

We are holding a fund raiser at Broad Street United Methodist Church on Friday, July 23rd. Our troop (with the help of troop parents) will be watching children ages 3-12 years old. We want parents to be able to go enjoy the entertainment of the "Friday after Five" concert in Downtown, Statesville or even just go dine and have a night to themselves. We will play games, eat dinner, do arts and crafts, and watch a movie with the children. It’s from 5 pm-10 pm. We will be charging $20 per child and $5 per additional sibling. It should be a blast and are really looking forward to lots of guests! Please email bushuser@aol.com or call Lucy Coarsey at 704.878.0465 if you are planning on sending your child or would be interested in helping.
Thanks everyone! Have a great week and thanks again for all of your support!

Final Touches

Hey everyone! We are so excited to share that the book is literally days away from going to the publishers. Even though all of us girls are traveling all over the place this summer vacation, we have been communicating and meeting diligently to put all of our final touches on Walking with Grace.

A few of us met with Hunter this morning to discuss details about the cover and other details that needed to be finalized to further prepare for her meeting with the publisher. Also, earlier this week we met with the Tsumas family to discuss some of the same details and get their approval on our work and receive ideas and opinions on other parts of the book and project. Addie has officially finished her illustrations and has done a phenomenal job on everything.

We are all so excited to be close to finally revealing the beautiful story of Grace and everlasting friendship. We will continue to keep you posted and thank you for your support!
