Kerry Shorb, owner and operator of My Father’s Footsteps
have graciously offered to give a free first
haircut to the tots of participants at
Up-County Family Center. A "First Haircut"
gift certificate will be given to the child’s
parent and they can set up an appointment at their
convenience with the salon. In honor of the event a
picture will be taken and of course a lock of hair
will be saved to make this a memorable time for both
parent and child.
