kd news “New Circle by the Bay” The majority of the circle members are from the Church Point and Chick’s Beach neighborhoods in Virginia Beach, and their leader, Debbie Grell, knows first-hand how important CHKD is to our community. Debbie’s daughter, Caroline, born 2 ½ months prematurely, weighed just 2 pounds, 1 ounce, had to be rushed to CHKD. Thanks to the doctors and nurses, Caroline is now a healthy teenager. Circle by the Bay has been busy planning numerous community activities with its first fundraiser slated to coincide with the annual Church Point community yard sale taking place May 9, 2009, from 8:00a.m. until 1:00 p.m. Two houses have been designated as “King’s Daughters’ Houses” with 100% of the profits from the sales being donated to CHKD.

For the Shero (she+ hero= Shero) issue that will run this June, readers were asked to write, in 50 words or less, about someone who has accomplished something that places them in high esteem in the eyes of the nominator. Nancy Nusbaum, former president of The King’s Daughters, was nominated by a fellow Circle member who happens to work with Nancy on the Tour de Cuisine Committee, which Nancy has chaired for the last two years. Nancy was nominated for many reasons including her volunteer and fundraising service to The Kings Daughters and Physicians for Peace. During Nancy’s tenure as president of The King’s Daughters we were successful in donating over $850,000 in the 2007-08 fiscal year. This was the highest cash gift ever given in a single year by the KDs Nancy was a shero winner amongst three other nominees who were highlighted for a variety of reasons including, a severe stroke survivor; a faithful neighbor who continually bakes for others in need; and an immigrant mother who sacrificed everything to achieve the American Dream for her children. skirt! magazine will celebrate Nancy and the other 3 “sheros”, at the first Shero skirt! Party on June 11th at The Rotunda in Norfolk from 5:30-7:30 pm. The ad stating specifics for the party will run in the June issue of skirt! We Need You! We have many volunteer positions open for our Major projects. Most don’t require attending meetings each month, but simply working the day of the event. We would love to have volunteers from each circle!! Look for a sign up sheet at your next circle meeting. ** For all events, volunteers do not have to buy a ticket if they are just working a shift.
