2008 Friendship Tea
The 2008 Friendship Tea raised more than $1000 for the non-profit, Women Helping Women last weekend. More than 130 women enjoyed delicious tea snacks by Betty Campbell, fashion show by Fancy Pants, and music by Judith Nelson. The 17 table hostesses made each individually decorated table unique and beautiful (see tables below). Youth from the fifth grade, seventh grade, and Confirmation Class served food and beverages to the ladies.
