Join our Christian Sisterhood


Have you ever thought about joining a Red Hat Group? Way before I even turned the age of 50, I wanted to join one. They had so much fun, and I needed to have some fun.

Out of something bad...something good came.... my new chapter, Hens and Chicks.


In April 2007, Hens and Chicks Chapter was created. This day, I still have (3) of the same members with me (2010). They are Lady Jean, Lady JoAnne, and Lady Laura. We are still doing the chicken dance, and going strong.

Today, we are going strong, we are still registered with Red Hat Society. We have (10) paid members. I finally have the best of Vice Queen's Rita. She's my best friend. Our Members are not Supporting Members of the RHS, but they are supporting members of our Chapter.

This past April we celebrated our "Third Anniversary." We had our luncheon at Mountain Gate Restaurant located in Waynesboro, Pa.

I've always wanted to have a Praises page on our Website, maybe I can have that here on our Blog.

And, I want to speak with our Chaplain ( Lady Butterfly) and maybe she will submit some info for her page here on the Chapter Blog.

We are so thankful for the fine members we now have.
