About the Cover: CASA’s Artistic Ornaments

This month’s cover photos come to us courtesy of photographer, Bob Nagy. The lovely staff at the Tri-Lakes CASA office helped organize the photo shoot so Nagy could include a variety of ornaments.

Several local artists, community leaders and student artists, created these delightful ornaments that were part of the annual silent auction fundraiser. Richard Stephens, our cover layout designer, took Nagy’s photos and turned them into a cheerful holiday cover. Special thanks to all who helped make this possible!

Tri-Lakes CASA serves the children in foster care in Garland, Hot Spring, and Grant counties. They are currently serving 103 of the 152 kids in care in our counties. They need more volunteers (like YOU) to ensure they can advocate for every child. For more information, visit tri-lakescasa.org and fill out a volunteer application.

The mission of Tri-Lakes Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) is to provide trained volunteer advocates to safeguard the best interests of abused and neglected children in Garland, Grant and Hot Spring counties.
