PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE: Hello! We are headed into spring: more rain, light rain, daylight savings time, bright yellow daffodils, vivid blue muscari, purple and creamy hellebores, apricot pink blueberry blooms… and our annual SPRING TEA on Thursday, April 20!

Your board members have made fine plans for your enjoyment. They are preparing items for a silent auction you won’t want to miss. They are donning their aprons and searching their cookbooks for the right recipe for sweet and savory morsels for your pleasure. They will prepare and set out a lovely array of appetizers to be sampled, maybe once, maybe twice, maybe more.

You can drink tea or coffee from an exquisite cup from an extensive and beautiful cup collection. You will have ample time to view and bid on our silent auction items. You can sit and visit at a comfortable table. You can circulate to meet and converse with those you know as well as get acquainted with new members and guests.

We hope you will don your best teatime attire and join us for a celebration of our members, new and renewing, potential and probable, plus each guest you may bring with you.

Judy Herman
