The first tea was held in December 1966 in the hospital itself. Tables were set up in the hospital boardroom and the tea and goodies were served from the hospital kitchen. Handmade crafts and baked goods were sold and that event raised $46.50. In 2011 our tea made over $2,700, thanks to the generosity of those who donated items and those who purchased them!

Come and join us on November 21 for a lovely afternoon of food and fellowship. The cost remains unchanged: Adults $7.00, Students $3.00, and children under 6 free. And bring some extra cash to spend at our bake and craft tables, which will no doubt have something to tempt everyone.
We will also be selling raffle tickets on a beautiful wall hanging created and donated by Ingeborg Rittweiler. And the generous folks at Prestige Floral Studio have donated a centerpiece for our tea table that will be used as a door prize. Local decorator Shelly Campbell will once again be donating her time and considerable talents to making the hall look cheerful and Christmasy.
All proceeds will be used to purchase items for the care and comfort of patients and residents at Stewart Memorial Hospital.
