Best Friend Errand Service  Knows How To Help!

 
When the going gets tough the tough get going.
 
Our customer was moving out of town.  They had to plan a two part move because their house wasn't going to be ready when they got there.  We helped pack and label boxes.  Our customer handled the first part of the move but needed us to be there for day two.  We let the movers back in the house, made sure to answer any of their questions and kept our customer posted on the progress. 
 
Our customer needed all hands on deck.  She was arranging a Spa Session for Administrative Assistants Day.  We helped her turn a boring meeting room into a relaxing retreat for the well deserving women.  Set up, tear down and even a run to Sally Beauty Supply were just part of the days work for us.

Meet One of Our Best Friends
Marcia Galik 
Marcia Galik
 

Marcia Galik is a very active West Chester resident. She is the mother of two sons ages 14 and 11. She loves to read, write, and spend time with family and friends. Her part-time position as an x-ray technologist is very satisfying, and also provides her time to volunteer for causes that are important to her. 

One of those causes is the American Cancer Society's Relay For Life. She currently serves as the Event Chair. The Relay for Life is an 18-hour event in which teams raise funds then camp overnight. This year the event starts Saturday, May 12th at 3:00 PM at Lakota West High School on the outdoor track. Live music, a DJ, food, games, health information, and a Luminaria ceremony are just some of what is planned.

"I Relay for many reasons, but I lost my mother to brain cancer in 1985," she explains. "I often wonder if she was diagnosed today how different her treatment might have been." Like many of us, Marcia also has friends and family who have battled cancer. 

"We invite you to attend our Relay For Life. To donate or participate in this event, please visit the website at www.acsevents.org/relay/oh/westchester.
