I am quite willing to share my Events photos with other Red Hatters but please
Lady Cyber for permission first and how to get high resolution photos. Thank you.
A little history of our past events:
Red-uation for Cindy, Duchess of Much as she turned 50 with a surprise party and her new Red Hat, at her Café : much to the amusement of her patrons!
Lunch @ Water Tower in Lethbridge followed by a visit to the Craft Show at Exhibition Grounds.
Gathering at Yotee’s Restaurant for dessert to celebrate the New Year.
I was interviewed by Gord Brinkhurst of the Temple City Star.
He wrote a delightful article stating “Something Red This Way Comes”!
Valentines day was celebrated with supper at Yotee’s with our husbands, followed by The “Musical Seussical” at the Carriage House Theatre.
At a gathering at Vice Queen Edwardina’s home, we discovered we enjoyed the fun, hilarity and WINE, much more than making future plans! However, we did manage.
Celebrated the Green with an “Irish Coffee Gathering” at the home of our Kia, Countess of Calm.
Had a fabulous Red Hat Birthday Party in the Sunroom of the Remington Carriage Museum with the other Cardston Chapter, The Klassy Crimson Hatters as our guests. Elvis came! Our very own, Dutchess of Dreams, Trudy, Lady Val of the House of Aetna and George Varghese (a willing participant as a friend) performed a marvelous rendition of “Hello Dolly”! We have it on tape!!
Dutchess of Dreams, Trudy & Countess de Crochet, Anna rode the Big 30 seat bike for the Heart & Stroke Foundation, wearing their Red Hats!
Gathered at Our Place Café to design our Logo, have t-shirts and night shirts made up with them. Dutchess of Dreams, Trudy followed through with all that.
Duchess of Much, Cindy, invited and arranged tickets for us to attend the “Charlie Pride” Concert at the Enmax Centre.
We hiked Police Lake Park with Countess de Crochet Anna and to her home for a great luncheon. Along with us were relatives staying with Countess of Calm, from as far away as Ireland and Brooklyn, New York. We promptly made them “Honorary” members of our Chapter of The Red Hat Society and presented them with Red Hat Ball Caps with the RHS logo.
A “Regal Carriage Ride” around town, was arranged for us by hostesses Countess of Calm, Fran and Lady Wisteria followed by a Birthday Party at Lady Wisteria’s home as there are 11 members with Birthday’s in the summer months.
“A Red Sharpie Party” was hosted by Princess of Quite a Lot, Cynthia to color the very muted RED on our t-shirts and night shirt logos. Sharpie’s Work!!
MISSOULA, MONTANA CONVERGENCE was attended by Countess of Calm, Fran, Lady Val of the House of Aetna, Countess de Crochet, Anna and myself, Queen Mum Sandy. 3 day’s of absolute fun and hilarity, we couldn’t wait to get back home to tell our chapterettes all about it! It’s good to go to these events, we learned so much and met so many wonderful Red Hatters!
Halloween Sleep-over at Queen Mum Sandy’s home all with Ridiculous Hats!!
Never too old for a sleep over!
THE BIG SECRET!!: CORONATION OF QUEEN MUM SANDY!!
Dec. ended the full year of The Chief Mountain Red Hat So. Belles.
A yr. of marvelous fun and hilarity - this is only the beginning of what we hope to be a very long fun filled association and friendships with our sister Red Hatters that Matter!
We’re taking this play and fun to heart and having a blast in Purple & Red!
Girls just wanna have fun!
