Girls Just Want to Have Fun" and deserve to have a break from their normal daily routines. That's why girls of all ages are being called upon to bring their friends and family to the "Girls Will Be Girls" event, hosted by the Manhasset Lord & Taylor to benefit the Ronald McDonald House of Long Island. The event will be held at the Manhasset store on Saturday, June 14 from 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The day's activities include mini-makeovers; raffles; a gift with the purchase of cosmetics; complimentary gift wrapping; and an additional savings pass on items purchased throughout the day. Children will have the opportunity to have their faces painted by a talented team of artists, as well as enjoy musical entertainment, provided by a DJ.

Limited tickets which include a complimentary breakfast and goodie bag, are $15.00 per adult and $10.00 for children. At the breakfast, which will be served in the Lord & Taylor Café beginning at 9:30 a.m., guests will have a chance to bid on beautiful silent auction items. After 11 a.m. the ticket cost is reduced to $10 per adult - children are free. All proceeds from this event will benefit the House. To reserve your ticket or for additional information, you may contact Jeanne Ellis at 718-343-5683, ext. 140 or via email at jellis@rmhlongisland.org.
