| A MAD HATTER
TEA PARTY WILL TAKE PLACE ON SEPTEMBER 9TH IN
SAN FRANCISCO TO BENEFIT THE NATIONAL AIDS MEMORIAL
GROVE
The event heralds their 15th anniversary
and honors volunteers who support the Grove. The
event is also a fundraiser for Grove operations
and endowment
Over 200 guests are expected and
tickets are $125.
The surreal Tea Party also hosts
"The Queen's Croquet" which will pit
local media celebrities against each other. Columnist
Leah Garchik of the San Francisco Chronicle, Jan
Wahl from KRON-TV and KCBS-Radio, Cammie Blackstone
from KFRC radio, Stan Bunger and Kim Wonderley
from KCBS, Tim Gaskin from Outspoken TV and Eric
Jansen of Public Radio International KALW's "Out
in the Bay” will play the game.
We hear there will be an unlikely
array of hats and headwear, so bring your camera.
A photo booth with Lewis Sykes hats will be available
for chapeau posing. Entertainment will be provided
by the Acrosports City Circus Troupe and Exeter
Quartet. The party will feature savory delights,
as well as champagne and cocktails.
The National AIDS Memorial is a
seven-acre dell of redwoods in Golden Gate Park,
San Francisco, California, and is a living tribute
to all whose lives have been touched by AIDS.
The Grove is the only federally-designated AIDS
Memorial in the US.
