Dunwoody Mermaids

Sunday, March 17, 2013

I have been holding off on sharing these photos until they had run in Perimeter North Lifestyle Magazine. Olivia Plump, her sister Hannah and Claire Rohrbach are three teenage girls living in Dunwoody. The trio goes to school by day but by night and on weekends, the friends transform into mythical beings. Donning hand crafted tails, Claire, Hannah and Olivia transform into mermaids to entertain children at birthday and pool parties. The idea has grown throughout the small community north of Atlanta over the past few years. Starting with a business plan and a focus group, the three high school students are growing, especially now with the inclusion of  the Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta. The center allows the girls to entertain children with their fairytale experience not only throughout the summer months in Georgia but also through winter with access to their indoor pool facility.
