Jade Monfils at Dallas Day Out

This weekend was Dallas Family Day Out at Dallas City Hall. This event is in part with the National Night Out campaign, which reinforces safety and crime prevention in Dallas. I served as the host for the day, and had the opportunity to meet several wonderful individuals. The day started out with a fashion show put on by Skyline High School's Fashion Marketing class. All the clothes were sponsored by Target. Since I am in the fashion industry, I love being able to see younger fashion students pursuing their dreams. I had a chance to talk to them and some of their parents- I love making new fashion friends!! Another big sponsor was State Farm- both sponsors were giving away items such as IPods, cameras, and $250 gas cards each hour which was exciting. All throughout the day their was an array of talented musicians from the DFW area. Here I am with the band Phoenix Heart. Another wonderful and accomplished woman that I had the opportunity to meet was Dr. Elba Garcia who is the Mayor Pro Tem and also Dallas City Council Woman over District 1. She was so well spoken and an inspiration as a successful community leader. I had a very exciting day, and the costumed characters added to the enjoyment!
