Ledyard Homemakers Invite to Tea and Bicentennial Plans
The Ledyard Homemakers met at Gertrude Winter’s home on May 19 at 9:00. President Winter led the pledge as Mary Hestland called roll and sang, sixteen members shared patriotic songs. They discussed county meeting insights, prepared for Bicentennial events, and invited the club to a June 8 tea at City Hall. The group also planned August Tidbits and closed with a poem. Mary Heetland taught music recreation, Annie Ennen received the Birthday Song, and lunch followed. Girl Scouts from Lakota attended the Bicentennial parade May 22 with a float proclaiming heritage. Norma Rieffer joined the girls for their day in the Bicentennial amid rain-soaked attire.
