The Hat Ladies of Lycoming County
April Newsletter
My Fair Hat Ladies, Spring is here and time for us to put away those winter bonnets and adorn our beautiful Easter bonnets. This weather has been unbelievable!
I have heard the geese fly over and the forthysia is in bloom.
APRIL MEET & EAT
The April Meet & Eat will be on Saturday, April 8th @ Orlando’s Resturante on Main St in Muncy. The menu is Orlie’s famous Lasagna (luncheon size) with a tossed salad, bread, coffee or tea and cheesecake for dessert. It is $13
(all inclusive). Please bring the correct change and
pay me at the door. Reservations must be in by Wednesday, April 5th by calling me @ 546-2012 or email me @
puttinonthehatz@aol.com. This is our annual Hat Auction in memory of Suzanne Taggart. All proceeds will go to the American Cancer Society to buy a wig or hat for a cancer survivor. Look through your gently used hats and bring some to donate to the cause. We have some great hats that were given to Jeannette Steumpfle specifically for this affair. Hope to see all of you there!!!!!
