Dr. Michael Mayhew and other members of his dental office in Boone elected to forego an office Christmas party and shop for several needy families.

The office planned the shopping event around a scavenger hunt allowing the teams of staff shoppers to develop a plan through cooperative efforts in team building.

The staff was dressed in shirts which noted “The Magic of Giving Begins With A Smile.”

As they progressed from store to store doing their shopping and finding their scavenger items in the community, the staff noted that “it was a fun and very rewarding experience!”

In addition, while the staff was at Walmart store, they met several members of the WHS football and the WHS varsity basketball teams shopping for needy families as well.

Both of the high school teams earned their shopping money doing various fundraising events

“It is particularly rewarding to see our young people get involved in such worthwhile causes,” said Dr. Michael Mayhew.

The dentistry office includes adult and child orthondontists and pediatric dentists. In addition to Mayhew, there are Dr. Nicole Scheffler, Dr. Stacy A. Conn and Dr. Martha V. Hardaway.
