• It pays to attend breakfast as Della Edrington (accompanied by Helen Geisler) found out when she spoke, in December, at the Culpeper County Chamber of Commerce Legislative Breakfast about preserving and restoring the Graffiti House.  In addition to subsequently receiving letters of support from both Virginia Senator Ed Houck and Delegate Ed Scott, a reporter for the Culpeper Citizen was at the breakfast and asked for an interview. The result was a major article detailing the Graffiti House plight.  This, in turn, led to a call from Fox News, Channel 5, D.C. They will be at the Graffiti House Sunday, January 14th, to hopefully further widen the awareness of our needs.

  The quote of the day was made by Helen, " I know somehow we will get this done through the generosity of others, our foundation operates on a lot of faith."
