Photos to raise funds for homeless families

Desert Star Gymnastics and Amy Jamieson Photography will host a holiday photo day on Saturday, Nov. 6, and the public is invited.

Prior to the photo session, 40 gymnasts (ages 3-17) will perform in the Desert Star Gymnastics recital from 10-11 a.m.

Photos are scheduled from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Two photo backgrounds will be available: one is a fall setting with leaves, pumpkins and bales of hay; the other is a photo with Santa to make sure this year’s holiday photo is ready for family and friends.

Each 5×7 photo is $15 and can feature one or two individuals or even families. Other photo packages will also be available for purchase.

The photo session is scheduled for 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Desert Star Gymnastics, 44301 W. Maricopa-Casa Grande Highway (in the Stagestop Marketplace). The public is invited to come out and get some holiday photos taken while supporting a good cause. Children’s activities will be available during the photo shoot to keep the little ones engaged.

Photo proceeds will go to help homeless families by providing much needed items such as clothing and personal items.

“This is all about kids helping kids,” said Desert Star Gymnastics director Amy Bratlie.
