2021 Garden Tea - Postponed. New date to be determined.
Unfortunately, due to the continued spread of the delta variant, and for the safety of everyone, we have made the difficult decision to postpone this year’s Garden Tea scheduled to take place on Wednesday, September 15 at Mayowood Stone Barn. We apologize that we are unable to come together as a group but rest assured once we are able to gather again, we will hold this very special event.
Upcoming Events
Family Ice Cream Social - August 2021 - Canceled due to continuing Covid restrictions for unvaccinated youth.
