Almost eight years ago, the first annual Hurricane Party was held to kick start Children's Volunteer Health Network (CVHN). Founder Tricia Carlisle-Northcutt's intention was to provide a way for all children to be healthy and happy, but she knew she needed the help and commitment of our entire community.

Since then, CVHN has provided thousands of our children with medical, dental, vision and mental health care. Who could have imagined the enormity of the need right here in South Walton?

Tiffanie Shelton's journey of faith brought her to a point in life where she had to act. She knew there were families who needed help in our community and her faith fueled her desire to take action.

One day as she sat down with her pastor a thought occurred to her, “what if we just helped a couple of families as a church?” She thought she could do it out of her house, store food and maybe help five or six kids.

Emerald Coast women gathered for a fabulous event during the holidays at Marlin Grill at The Village of Baytowne Wharf, raising $12,399 for local children.

The seas as well as the many gifts that come from the ocean world inspire Margaret’s paintings. Her work is both modern and realistic. It is imbued with her imagination, pushing the viewer to more closely observe the fascinating play of design that can be found in nature.

Margaret studied art at the University of Illinois at Chicago as well as The Evanston Art Center. Her full time practice of art was delayed however, by a long and exciting career in the fashion industry.
