“We are so excited about our new venue, which is located in the community where you will find the Friends of Caroline Hospice office.  As the numbers have continued to grow, we have had to move from our initial location at Dockside Restaurant, to our most recent location, the Beaufort Inn.  Now as we prepare for our largest attendance ever, the 2012 Friends Fashion Show will be held at The Shed, where there will be a completely different look. This year we hope attendees will feel as though they are entering a New York loft as they walk in the door and after enjoying their lunch, will be transported directly to the runway of that high fashion city” explains Fashion Co-Chairpersons Sharon Dwyer and Janet Thompson.
