The table with women and childrens' hats is ready for customers...

...as is the one for the men

 

The decorators are setting up their shop...

...to add any bling requested of our "customers"

MUSC is ready to dispense invaluable info on skin cancer and other skin related diseases

The lines are already forming.  Good thing we are passing out numbers

There is a nice steady stream of customers that forms over the next hour and a half

Fortunately we have found the only shady area in the Square, since the temperature will reach 97'

The stylish "hatisfied" customers start to exit the Square...

...with a hat on their head and a smile on their face

Meanwhile our designers keep busy, upon request, of course

 

The men and boys love their hats as much as the women and girls...

...and sure know when they're lookin' good!

 

Pat hands out info provided by The Headwear Association on how to "Practice Safe Sun"

And the lines keep forming
