The Brookdale Library in Brooklyn Park was all aflutter as approximately 25 young girls, their parents, and grandparents participated in Blooming Butterflies Academy’s Barbie-themed back-to-school party, a free-of-charge event.
The founder, Mz Lola (pictured in the center), created the organization to assist girls in their personal development, help build confidence, and learn social etiquette. The focus of the Sept. 30 event was on how to handle bullies.
Mz Lola has a similar program for women called Madam Butterflies. For more information call Mz Lola at 763-355-7177.
