Spring for Tea tickets go on sale Feb. 1

[January 20, 2011]  Tickets for the eighth annual Spring for Tea, the premiere spring event of this year's Harvest of Talents, will go on sale Feb. 1. The site for the tea will be the Lincoln Christian Church Fellowship Center, where doors will open at 10:45 a.m. April 30 to provide guests an opportunity to participate in a promenade of tables before serving begins.

The event is sponsored by the Harvest of Talents for World Hunger ministry of the church.

The tea will feature a variety of tasty sweets and savories served from elegantly appointed tables that are hosted and decorated by women of the community. Background music will provide ambiance for the occasion. Guests are invited to come dressed in their colorful spring attire, which may include hats if they so choose.

Other highlights of the event will include a program chosen especially for the tea and door prizes provided by local business and individuals.

Marcia Bidwell is chairing the Spring for Tea. In announcing the ticket sales, Bidwell noted that in past years the event was an early sellout, and she encourages those interested to purchase their tickets early. Tickets may be purchased at the office of Lincoln Christian Church. For more details, call the church office at 732-7618.

All proceeds from the eighth annual Spring for Tea will become a part of the 28th annual Harvest of Talents for World Hunger and will be channeled through International Emergency Service to meet hunger needs worldwide.
