Prom Dress Swaps



Why spend a king's ransom to look like a princess for your prom this year! There are many prom dress swaps around the country so if you want to save some money and still feel like Cinderella this is the way to go. Hey even movie stars swap clothes! http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/w0000211.html The Wilmington Health Access for Teens in the Greater Wilmington, NC region will hold it's annual Prom Dress Swap on March 5th at Independence Mall from 4-8pm. Bring a dress to exchange for a different one or pay just $20.00 for one of the dresses there. You can't beat that price. There will be raffles and great information so don't miss this wonderful opportunity.

We are gathering information on other regional prom dress swaps and will get that information out as soon as we have it.

If you have evening and cocktail dresses you aren't using please consider donating them to this great cause. In Wilmington you can contact GeoffZuckerman@whatswhat.org.

Think Spring!


As with most of the rest of the country we've been in a pretty deep chill here in Eastern NC. Way colder than usual but nothing like the below zeros in ND and heavy snows in the West. Today is warm and sunny here and I'm definitely thinking spring! We'll be involved in a lot of great projects this spring and continue to grow the site everyday with new members and new regions. Thanks to all of you who are helping us with this great venture! Wishing you all a sunny day.

Time and Transitions



In our newsletter yesterday we published a very cool picture one of our reps. in Arizona, Katie Woodard, took of the Blue Moon on New Year's Eve in Sedona. I realized after we sent the newsletter out that my husband emailed me a beautiful picture of the sunrise from our back porch on New Year's morning. We live on the East Coast. These two pictures capture time, change and transition from across the country and evoke a lot of interesting thought. Thanks for sharing Katie and Bob.
