Hair, Nails, and Pedicure Services THANKS TO LA PAZ REGIONAL I am in the process of recuperat- ing...from La Paz Hospital visit. I was there for over a week. I found it unbelievable, due to the extended changes. We DO have a great hospital in our area. I had gone in after listening to years of put down, but everyone so pro- fessional, friendly, nice, helpful, etc. More like a family there. All the therapists, nurses, doctors, lab, etc. were simply great! All showed an interest, cared, and, (must admit) spoiled me a bit! But I did adjust to the spoiling pretty well! Don't hesitate to go there! It has changed so much and staff are truly more like family. I want to thank all who are over there, for all the encouragement, help and assistance I received! Lots of hard workers, are there! They were determined to send me home in better shape than when I entered! Now a nurse, physical therapist, an aid come to me. Thanks to all at our Hospital! One of the best in the valley! Nancy Sommars Quartzsite We're having an amazing 2nd Rain- bow Acres Christmas Boutique on Friday, December 7th, 2018. Time is 9am - 3pm. YES, it is big- ger and better than last year! The event will be held on several lots on Felspar Ave. At the time, we have approximately 60 local artists and crafters participating. Since last year, we had no food booths, we decided this year to provide you with a lunch special of a hot dog, chips, drink and a free cookie...all for $4 at Gene & Karl's Hot Doggedy Stand. The new Marketplace Coffee Shop will be here in the morning to provide coffee and yummy pastries to get you started. We have many of your favorite art- ists already signed up! Oney Budge, Sharon Noller, Teresa Young, Nan- cy Nichols and many more. We are proud to say that this year we have over 20 new folks joining us. We will also have Olivia Guido, from Eve's Place, here for you to meet and sell some of the amazing hand- made dolls made by Candi Lyne. Let's talk about raffl e prizes.... We have an entire table full of great raffl e prizes for you to look at and hopefully support. These gifts were all donated to us from amazing and giving folks. There is not one that I would not want to have or give as a gift. All funds from the raffl e, the Hot Doggedy Stand and the sale of the dolls will be donated to Eve's Place, which is a wonderful program to help with domestic violence and abuse. These funds will help with their holiday program. Christmas is right around the cor- ner. Come shop and enjoy a great day of fun and food.
