Renfrew North District WI Ruth Douma was one of ï¬ve ladies who put together a spring tea fundraiser for a local church. Different groups and organizations were asked to host a table in order to show the community what is out there â€" right in their own backyard! Renfrew North District (Eastern Area) accepted the offer to host a table in the spring tea. The theme was wedding dresses of past and present â€" and anything that went along with that theme. Members showed their wedding dresses and Ruth also displayed some of her hat collection. The District table had WI memorabilia on display, such as cups and plates, and used blue and yellow colours for the table. Another Member from Renfrew North District did a skit, while others came and enjoyed the afternoon with a full house of ladies, both young and old.
