The purpose of this event is for members to share with new members and friends all the beautiful daffodils from their gardens and the floral arrangements made by the Kabatin Flower Arranging group.
Members host tables decorating with their china tea sets and provide wonderful tea sandwiches and desserts. Also members donate gifts for the door prizes so that each person attending has a chance at winning one of the many door prizes.

Eighteen tables were set up and all were decorated with china and flower arrangements with clever hostesses gifts. Gerrard thanked all the hostesses and all the people who helped to make this tea a success.
There were 77 door prizes donated by members so that almost everyone received something. The rain didn’t bother the friendship and good time everyone enjoyed.
