Well, the first practice of the Plum Pretties Umbrella Drill Team
has taken place, and oh what a time it was!
Upon our arrival, we exchanged hugs and greetings. We were then met by our most gracious Queen, who offered for our enjoyment a wonderful spread of fruit salad, and cheese and crackers, along with some chips to munch. There was pop and water to quench our thirst, and what a thirst we worked up!
After our refreshments, we took to the lawn with instructions in one hand, and our umbrellas in the other.
While at first it was rather like herding cats, we soon settled down and got to work. I AM SO PROUD OF OUR DRILL TEAM!!! By the end of the evening, we were quite respectable, and it actually looked like we knew what we were doing. Thank you so much to our very own Military expert, the Queen's Captain! Thank you, sir, for "dressing our troops"! And thank you too, Queen, for your wonderful hospitality.
Your castle is a thing of beauty, and you always are so warm and welcoming.
All in all, it was a very successful venture, and I'm sure we will be very entertaining in Traverse City in September.
So, until the next Drill Team practice, I leave you with the following:
"I don't know but it's been said,
we look good in hats of red.
When we march in the parade,
History will then be made!"
Keep on marching!

Welcome to our new site!
Hello Plum Pretties! Welcome to our brand NEW blog site for our Chapter ALONE!
Here, we will post upcoming activities, pictures, (when I figure out how!) and just keep in touch with the click of a mouse.
Here's how it works:
When you have an event to post, or a summary to send, just send it to me, and I will put it on our blog. Simple, right?
I've created a new email account just so you can send me Red Hatter related information. Please use this address to send me items you would like to post on the site. The address is: brenda.redhatdiva@gmail.com
This will make it possible for our Chapter members to check what's going on with ONE click of the mouse, instead of sorting through dozens of emails. COOL!
Hope everyone likes the concept, let's get rolling!
Hugs to all,
Lady Hatter Chatter Brenda
