UMW Bazaar, St. John: Monday, Oct. 19, 4:30 pm to 7 pm, United Methodist Church on 1st Street in St. John
The fine folks of the UMW - the United Methodist Women in St. John - are probably some of the best cooks in the county. For only $6 for 10 yrs and older - you’ll enjoy the best soups, sandwich and pies ($3 for 9 and younger).
But this is also a bazaar so you can do your shopping for beautiful hand crafted items: last year we bought beautiful embroidered (no one embroiders anymore!) cup towels, wonderful knitted hats, a cool book mark and lots of other items. PLUS....you’ll also browse the large variety of home made breads, cakes -pineapple upside sold out early last year :-( - some of those scrumptious pies to take home plus pickles, sandhill plum jams, okras, and tons more. Mark your shopping list now and plan on attending.

Only two seatings are available for the luxuriously elegant and traditional Victorian Tea in St. John. Held at the Lucille M. Hall Museum, a feast for the eyes itself, this year brings back the true Victorian Christmas era as you are waited upon by gentlemen and ladies dressed in the era’s finery. You’ll enjoy soothing cups of tea accompanied by handcrafted Christmas savories and sweets.
The Events don’t start and stop with the Tea: American State Bank will present the Hazel Thomas Hat Pin Collection. From Stafford, Ms. Thomas has an amazing array of Victorian hat pins, holders, purses and other fine items.
Christmas wouldn’t be complete without a Nativity Display and there will be a varied display of Nativity Scenes at the Ida Long Goodman Library.
