Stratford Senior Services and the Stratford Junior Women are hosting an afternoon Victorian Tea

Stratford Senior Services and the Stratford Junior Women are hosting an afternoon Victorian Tea on Thursday, May 29, at 1:00 PM at the Baldwin Center. The event is part of the many celebrations the Town will be having to commemorate its 375th anniversary. The Tea also is in honor of Older Americans Month.

Stratford residents 90 years of age and older are invited as guests to the tea. All other guests can purchase tickets for $3.00 at the Baldwin Center. Those attending for free are asked to stop in the office for a complimentary ticket or to call 203-385-4050 to register. Tickets will not be sold at the door.

The tea will feature a presentation by Kandie Carle “The Victorian Lady”.  Kandie is a talented historical performer who will dress in actual vintage and authentically reproduced undergarments, clothing and accessories while sharing history and interesting anecdotes about fashion, home life and etiquette.  The program is both humorous and intriguing.

“We wanted to do something special this year to honor our older citizens of the Town,” stated Diane Puterski, Senior Services Director. “It is this population that helped shape Stratford and make it the wonderful community it is. This is our way of saying thank you and showing our appreciation for all they have contributed to the town.”

For more information please call 203-385-4050 or 203-385-4055 and ask for Linda, Lauren or Diane.
