It was a gathering of the Mad Hatters when five local garden clubs got together in Cedaredge on June 7. The annual luncheon was hosted this year by the Four Seasons Garden Club, and everything had a touch of “The Mad Hatter.” Wearing “mad hats” are, from the left, Four Seasons members Janie Metz, Kathleen Morse, Mimi Gay, Rita Bodine, Virginia Menke, Kathy Conlon, Esther Summers, Marge Keet, Shirley Hutchinson and Marilyn Stumpf. Displayed on the table are theme decorated hats, one from each of the other clubs. From the left are Friends and Flowers Garden Club, Rose Garden Club, Paonia Garden Club and if you look closely you can see a tall “mad hat” by the Plant & Dig Garden Club behind the center hat.
