Ocean Child Boutique's one-year-anniversary celebration on Saturday, Aug. 18 was a splash complete with a live mermaid, entertainment and giveaways.
Children huddled around "Mermaid Nautilus" outside the store for photos as people in cars honked and waved in passing. Inside the store, performer "Element" had customers singing and dancing in the boutique's aisles, with a bongo player joining her near the end of the event. The store also held tarot card readings for interested customers.
Ocean Child wants to thank all its friends and the community for a successful first year in business.
