Canada Day Parade
The Red Hat Society is the largest social organization in the world. Its members are women “of a certain age” who seek fun, friendship and freedom from society’s expectations of older women. Members wear red hats and purple clothes when on an outing, and spread good will wherever they go.
The
Strawberry Tarts of Kemptville is a registered chapter of the Red Hat
Society. Hazel Brayman, Queen of Tarts
and the fourteen Royal Ladies, Eva Francoeur, Carol Armitage, Isabel Ayers,
Diane Boyce, Barb Breau, Ghislaine Crozier, Gail Darch, Ellen Leach, Judy
McGregor, Donna Mills, Donna Ross, Joan Scharf, Esther Tarr and Daphne
Stephenson enjoy a special bond of friendship.
These ladies say participating in the Rotary Canada Day parade was great fun, especially with Harry Pratt providing the horsepower and music.
The O'Farrell Financial Services float was selected by a panel of judges to have best incorporated the theme this year, " Reaching Out to Humanity" This is the second year in a row that they have won in the commercial category.
