WALDORF, MD (December 20, 2011) Celebrity hair stylist, David Palmer, was joined by platinum-recording artist, Carl Thomas, for the 2nd Annual Holiday Soiree and Scholarship Dinner at A David Palmer Salon, at the beginning of the month.  All proceeds from the evening benefited the David Palmer 1st State Academy Scholarship.

The scholarship is awarded to a Washington Metropolitan Area youth interested in the field of cosmetology.  The 2011 scholarship recipient is Christopher Turner, who will attend 1st State Academy of Cosmetology and Barbering, Inc., next year.
Turner was selected out of five finalists for this esteemed award. “Christopher has displayed remarkable academic achievement, community involvement, and a passion to learn,” remarked David Palmer. “We are honored to have been able to give this award to someone so deserving.”

The night featured performances by singer Jay Hayden and R&B group, Cool Fire, as guests enjoyed complimentary wine and a five-star meal prepared by Silver Skewers.  The evening concluded with the scholarship presentation to Christopher Turner by R&B singer, Carl Thomas.  By night’s end, Palmer raised nearly $10,000 for the 1st State Academy Scholarship.

“The annual Holiday Soiree has become a much-anticipated event in the Washington Metropolitan Area. It was a blessing I was able to attend this year, and for such a great cause,” stated Thomas, as he prepares to go on tour for his new album, Conquer.
