The Greater Douglas Chamber of Commerce invites the public of all ages to attend a community Tea Party, to be held on Sunday, April 30 at 1:30 p.m. at the Douglas-WIlliams Home, 1001 D Avenue.

Attendees are encouraged to dress in traditional tea party attire; sun hats and dresses, tea gloves, costume jewelry etc

Tea and other cold drinks will be provided, along with tea sandwiches and an assortment of appetizers and desserts.

Entertainment includes a Best Hat Contest, photo booth, music, prizes and etiquette class with Miss Douglas Days.

The Chamber has also invited attendees to bring their homemade appetizers or desserts to be entered in a potluck-style contest.

The cost to enter will be $5 per child, and $6 for adults. All proceeds will benefit the Miss Douglas Days 2017 pageant, and the GDCOCs efforts to promote local commerce.

Special garden seating will be available with a $10 reservation, which can sit up to six people.

This is a perfect chance to get in some bonding time with friends and family, said Nubia Romo, Executive Director, GDCOC. There are going to be plenty of cute photo opportunities, and lots of good company. I hope we see people there of all ages.

The Chamber is currently seeking sponsorships to make the event even stronger, Romo noted.

Sponsors are critical to us because we are a small Chamber, Romo said. Last year we did a lot with very minimal funds, so this year we want to make our events even better.

Current sponsors include Aqualife, AE Memorials, and the Douglas Historical Society.
