Photos of Region 8's Recent Queens Council Gathering


A wonderful day was had by all, with a special salute to all Queens in attendance .....






Queens, Queens . . . . everywhere!





The day started with meeting the charming ladies at the Registration Table: Rivertowne Belles' Kate Sbarra, Motsie Lamanna, Ruth Koehler and Frances Eanes ....... then seeing the wonderful world of Red Hat shopping brought to us by Red Hatters Delight of China Grove ...... and finally entering the dining room to be met by the vision of the lovely decorated tables awaiting us.

Talk about "Glitzy" . . . . our models for the day showed us all how to sparkle in our red and purple!

Region 8 Blog

IN KEEPING WITH THE NEW FOCUS FOR OUR STATE QC WEB SITE, ALL REGIONS ARE NOW GETTING THEIR VERY OWN "BLOGS"...SOME HAVE HAD THEM FOR A FEW MONTHS....OUR WEBMISTRESS, CAROL DALY, HAS JUST FINISHED SETTING OURS UP.
This blog, short for "weblog", will be your new "GO TO" place for information about upcoming events in our Region 8. The good part of this will be that any of our Region "officers" will have the capacity of posting information for you. They won't have to wait for Carol to find the time......and if one of us has the misfortune to lose our computer....someone else will be able to post.
Take the time to look the BLOG over and be sure to BOOKMARK THIS BLOG URL.

This should be considered your most important spot on the web for RED HAT information
as it pretains to you..(with the possible exception of Hatquarters).
