Playhouse # 2

Today we are highlighting Playhouse # 2, built by AppleBaker Construction. AppleBaker has been the only builder to build a playhouse for us each of the 5 years this event has taken place. We are so grateful for Cody Baker and Tony Rivera and their faithful support of CASA. From a castle to a whimsical, crooked house to the Wild West - AppleBaker always delivers creativity with their Casas for CASA playhouses.

The AppleBaker playhouse, also known as "The Best Lil' Playhouse in Texas" is perfect for anyone looking for some Wild West Adventures. Perfect for boys or girls - all you need is a little imagination to take you back in time to see how the west was won!

Playhouse # 1

This week we will be highlighting a different Casas for CASA playhouse each day. We will start at the very beginning.

Playhouse # 1 - built by Destiny Homes

Playhouse # 1 is located in Levelland at the United Supermarkets. It is doing quite well on ticket sales, as all the Hockley County folks seem to be very fond of that playhouse. Destiny Homes in a new builder to Casas for CASA this year, and we are very excited to have Josh & Jasper Jowers with Destiny Homes be so supportive of Casas for CASA.

This playhouse has a tiled and carpeted interior. It has several different areas for children to play in, including a child-size second story. Complete with a porch on the front, this little "casa"is the perfect play area for a child looking to play house in the backyard.

Great weekend at Casas for CASA

This was a great weekend for Casas for CASA. Raffle tickets in Levelland & Lubbock are raising money to support the work of CASA of the South Plains and our advocacy work with local abused and neglected children.

In Lubbock this weekend at the South Plains Mall, Chick-Fil-A joined us on Saturday. The Cow greeted children and free Chick-Fil-A was given to those who purchased the 5 tickets for $20 option.

If you missed it last Saturday, you can join us this Saturday from 1-3 pm as well.

Casas for CASA - in Levelland

I wanted everyone to see the amazing playhouse  built by Destiny Homes on display in Levelland. It is really cool on the inside - it has several different areas you can play in, plus a loft.

This playhouse is on display at the United Supermarkets in Levelland for the next 2 weeks.

One Week Until Casas for CASA

We are ONE WEEK out from Casas for CASA, the fifth annual Playhouse Raffle benefiting CASA! I have heard from several playhouse builders this morning which only causes our excitement to continue to increase. I cannot wait to see what designs and themes are used in the 2010 little "casas". Check back next week for pictures!


I would also like to take a moment and invite each of you to the Casas for CASA Ribbon Cutting to kick-off the 2010 Raffle. Please join us at 11:30 am next Monday at the South Plains Mall, near the fountains! We hope to see you there!
