Spring 2008 Issue
Thanks for coming to the big party
Our cookout at the American Swedish Historical
Museum in South Philadelphia was fun. Thanks again to
Beretta 76, The Tights, and Coldpheet. We had a few big
ticket items for a live auction, but mainly this was a
good old fashioned neighborhood barbecue!
We are proud to announce the Philadelphia Stories Essay Contest 2008,
sponsored by Kelly Simmons. The focus on this first contest will be first-person
essays that feature women triumphing over domestic violence or mental illness.
We are excited about this opportunity, since the funds go to two good causes.
Please see the details.
