The Hat Ladies activities are a simply
mahvelous combination of regularly scheduled events tHAT occur
each month, events tHATwe support around town, and events tHAT
are created just for us. The key word for all of them is "choice;"
The Ladies choose those that fit their interest, schedule, and
pocket book. Most of all, by simply dusting off their hats and
having fun wearing them, Ladies are creating their own "hatpening"
and reaffirming our primary goal.

differences in color, size, texture, and character express the
unique identity of each hat. In other words, no two hats will
