Defending Champ Wins in Playoff HOME ® Section A Where the news is always good! Vol. 24, No. 10 • April 2011 COMMUNITY NEWS & UPDATE By Kenneth D. Colen, Publisher On Top of the World is really a fun place! There are more events, meetings, and par- ties happening here than many people realize. It is also an incredibly generous community. Many residents volunteer for service organizations, mentor in the Mari- on County schools, and give back into the greater community. Women of the World recently had their 27th annual Fashion Show benefiting Hos- pice of Marion County. Now I’ve known this happens, but just never paid any at- tention to fashion shows. Over the guilt for missing The New Pretenders this year, Nancy Grabowski and Marsha Vieu talked me into modeling for this event. Jean Culp was the emcee for the fashion walk. Her fashion critique and humor really set the house laughing. Turns out, it was great fun and a bit of an ego boost too to be on stage with so many good looking and kind spir- ited women. This group, along with all the committees and volunteers, raised substan- tial dollars for Hospice of Marion County.
