Flood damage along Table Rock Lake in April has many homeowners and businesses cleaning up and rebuilding, but the mops are put away at the Pink Door in Hollister.  The hard work of Skaggs Regional Medical Center volunteers has quickly turned around the Pink Door thrift shop, which is ready to open its door June 28.

The Pink Door is operated by Skaggs Volunteer Services.  It lost everything in the flood.  “Our volunteers worked daily for the past two months to clean up the Pink Door and get it ready to reopen,” says Corene Spilman, President of Skaggs Volunteer Services.  “They went to work immediately after flood waters receded, tearing out sheet rock, pulling up carpet and throwing away all of the merchandise, which was damaged by flood waters.”

The Pink Door uses proceeds from the sales of donated items to help fund various purchases and projects for Skaggs Regional Medical Center.   In addition to the Pink Door thrift shop, Skaggs Volunteer Services generates funds through the Forget-Me-Not Gift Shop in the Skaggs Outpatient Center and various fundraising projects coordinated throughout the year.  In 2010 Skaggs Volunteer Services provided the hospital with more than $68-thousand for various projects and needed equipment.

The Pink Door reopens Tuesday, June 28 with hours of operation 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.  A grand re-opening celebration will be Wednesday, July 13, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. with refreshments, a ribbon-cutting ceremony, and door prizes.

Donations may be placed in the drop box outside The Pink Door, located at 181 1st Street in Hollister, inside the Turkey Creek Junction Shopping Center.

Skaggs Volunteer Services first began in October 27, 1949 as the Estella Skaggs Auxiliary.  It served the hospital alongside the former Red Cross Volunteers, later known as the Skaggs Volunteers.  As recent as 2008, the auxiliary and volunteers joined forces to create what is now known as Skaggs Regional Medical Center Volunteers.

There are more than 300 Skaggs Volunteers serving in many areas:  hospital, hospice, Mended Hearts and chaplaincy, Forget-Me-Not Gift Shop and Pink Door thrift shop.  For more details on becoming a Skaggs Volunteer visit www.skaggs.net/volunteer or call (417) 335-7114.

Kirby VanBurch, internationally renowned entertainer and illusionist, announced today that he is searching for a featured act to perform during his show in October of 2011. Kirby says, “In order to find just the right act to feature I’ve teamed up with MyStudio to acquire audition videos. MyStudio was also used by Simon Cowell’s X-Factor to acquire audition videos and I thought it was a great way to find my next big featured act.”

The search begins June 20, 2011 and will run through August 31, 2011. Those looking to create their audition video for consideration can visit any one of the MyStudio HD Recording Studio locations and then submit it on-line at http://www.MyStudio.net. Videos uploaded for the audition will be reviewed and those considered for the Kirby VanBurch stage will be posted and voted on by the general public. Kirby and his staff will select the winner from the top ten audition videos as voted on by the fans.

The act chosen to perform will receive two weeks of understudy under Kirby VanBurch and then a week of actual on stage performance either as a solo act or within an existing act. During this time period the Kirby VanBurch Theatre will pay for housing, meals, transportation in Branson, and weekly compensation. “I’m very excited about this partnership with MyStudio,” says Kirby. “I think this is the perfect way to find the next Big Thing for my Branson show!”

Kirby VanBurch, called the “Prince of Magic” by the Princess of Thailand, voted World’s Best Illusionist by the World Magic Awards, named Entertainer of the Year and Magician of the Year (multiple times) by the International Magicians Society has been called one of “America’s Best Magic Shows” by the Travel Channel.
