Tucked inside Southmayd Home, Aunt Hilda’s Beauty Parlor carries a story of love, service, and legacy.

Dedicated to Miss Hilda Mary Camp — who served on our Board for over four decades — this special space was made possible by her niece, Miss Nancy H. Camp, continuing a beautiful tradition of women uplifting women.
