ABOUT US

 

In the fall of 1997, two sisters (Vanessa Dowdy and LaTanya Moore) planned a retreat for Women fellowship. The plan was to get moms and daughters together for a few days of entertainment and spiritual education.  The retreat engaged women and girls in pampering activities, fashion, and spirituality. The objective of the retreat was to teach the participants to first love yourself, and then you can love others.   Its A Girls Thang became an annual event.  For twenty years we have planned excursions for the women and girls.  We have included the community in our travels. We love spending girl time attending seminars, breakout sessions, sightseeing, shopping, eating, singing, laughing and even crying.  We have traveled from Memphis, TN to Costa Rico.  Although some of the daughters have grown up and gone to college, gotten married and now have girls of their own, the fellowship  and activities are still alive.
