Brrr! It's Cold and Snowy Outside

Get away from the snow and sign up for the Show, The Philadelphia Flower Show, that is.

Call Ann Abrams now at the Frelinghuysen (973-326-7603) to sign up for the Friends' annual bus trip to the Show on March 3, 2010.

 

Hats off to Matilda

Last week's snow forced postponement of our annual Miss Matilda's Tea for children (and mothers and grandmothers). The speaker had 24 inches of snow in her yard while we had just a dusting!

The Tea is now scheduled for Saturday, February 20th at 1:30pm. There are still a few tickets left, so take advantage of the schedule change to order now.

Call Ann Abrams now at the Frelinghuysen (973-326-7603) to sign up.
