Sasee Hat and Marla Stroupe

I had a great time this month with Marla Stroupe, freelance writer and owner of Stroupe Communications in Pawleys Island.
While visiting Litchfield Dance Arts Academy, Marla took me into a class for Blossoming Ballerinas taught by Rachel Ayers. Aren’t they cute?
The very day Marla picked me up from Ilka Doubek we went to get a haircut from Tiffany Todd at Elite Retreat so I’d look great on her all month.
I went to Curves to work out with Marla and met some of her friends there: (left to right), Marla, Donna Ratliff, Jennifer Streiffert, Peggy Nettles, and Gerri Emanuele.
Marla and her husband, Chris, celebrated New Year’s in Charleston with their friends Teri and Hugh Hayes. She took me along for the festivities. Marla and I are enjoying the piazza of their condo on Meeting Street with Teri. It was a beautiful day.
One of Marla’s good friends, Gail Ritrievi, lives in Murrells Inlet, so they always try to pick a place that’s halfway from her house to Marla’s in Pawleys Island. They tried out a new place on Hwy. 17 Bypass called Fontinello’s Cafe. It was great.
The Georgetown County United Way marketing committee is working hard to get the word about this year’s campaign out to the residents of Georgetown County. Members of the committee are (l to r) Melissa Hanna, Marla, Leah Pittman, and Lynne Ford. Helen Benso couldn’t be at the meeting this month.
Marla worked with photographer, Wayne Eggleston, to take pictures of these beautiful dancers at the beach to promote their school’s summer intensive program. They are so talented.
