Four local salons joined forces on Sunday, May 3rd from 1p-5p, to help the efforts of Save Brian's House Community Group, Inc. by participating in a Clip and Chip Cut-A-Thon. Salons that volunteered their time and expertise were, A Spencer Gellise Salon, Salon Nuveau, Cara's Mane Event and The Grand Salon.
Stylists offered cuts for a suggested $10 minimum donation. A Spencer Gellise Salon located on Johnson St. in Bay City, had a full crew taking walk-in clients. One of the salon's owners, Heather Spencer remarked, "We have had more than dozen people stop in so far and it is only mid-day.".
Carol Walker, a volunteer of the Save Brian's House Community Group, Inc. was also pleased with the turn-out. "We feel fortunate that we've had such great community support", Walker said. She added, " We feel good about the steps the group has made, even if they are baby steps. We are excited to be at the point of working with designers and architects for needed renovations".
The group is looking at a former church located on Wagner and Knight Road, to offer six private rooms for those in need of hospice care in a supportive, home-like atmosphere. The former facility located off Midland Road, was closed approximately three years ago. The group hopes to fill the void for end of life care the closing left.
The group currently has donation site at:

Brians house helped my family through the dying process of three parents. It was a most incredible, comforting, and cathartic experience a person could experience. Dying with dignity and consolation is something we all could only hope and pray for.........best wishes in saving Brian's House........an incredible cause of support for the transition of life for the dying and the surviving.
