ST. BERNARD PARISH
PRESIDENT CLEANS UP
IN HAIRY FUND-RAISER
Craig Taffaro’s stint in salon raises more than $2,600 in recreation
funds
After a quick tutorial at 6 a.m., St. Bernard Parish President Craig
P. Taffaro Jr. washed hair for tips and rinsed dye bowls at the Hair
Gallery on May 22 for about six hours to raise more than $2,600 for
parish recreation facilities.
Hair Gallery owner Adrienne Lezina welcomed old and new customers,
male and female. She said they were all happy to get some one on one
time with Taffaro at the shop that is on West Morales Street in
Chalmette.
Lezina bought Craig's "indentured servitude" earlier this year at
the Our Lady of Prompt Succor Parent Social, the school where
Lezina’s younger daughter attended as a seventh grader. The school
benefit party included a silent auction for various items as well as
a live auction for six hours of the parish president's time.
After being the winning bidder at the auction, Lezina decided to
make the event at her salon an additional fund raiser with tips
going to the St. Bernard Recreation Department to rebuild
recreational facilities.
