Honoring the Fabric of the Community

Rim Educational Foundation Fashion Show  Posted: Thursday, May 17, 2018 

The ninth annual Fashion Show, sponsored by Rim of the World Educational Foundation (Rim Ed), was about much more than fashion.

While it is true that models representing the schools and administration of Rim of the World Unified School District, as well as the community at large, showed off clothing and accessories from several local businesses – Alexandra’s Emporium, Big on Bears, Jockey, Leroy’s Board Shop, Mountain Thrift Shoppe and Wilsons Leather – it was the students who spoke to the crowd at the Lake Arrowhead Country Club who captured the hearts of the audience.
