The annual Silver Tea, sponsored by the Waldo County General Hospital Aid, will be held on Wednesday, December 10, 2008, from 3 p.m.-6 p.m. at the home of Dr. Terrance Smith, Beth-Anne Gordley-Smith and family at 208 High Street, Belfast.
This historical home is a three story villa-style house built in 1859 for Charles B. Hazeltime who made his fortune in the California Gold Rush.
The public is invited to attend and enjoy the sandwiches and desserts served by Aid members. Drinks will include punch, coffee and tea served from silver services.
The Silver Tea continues a tradition that began in the 1950’s as a fundraiser by Hospital Aid volunteers.
There is no admission charge to attend the tea, but a silver bowl will be located near the entrance for voluntary donations. All funds realized from the tea will benefit the hospital.
The winning ticket for the Aid’s holiday raffle of a completely decorated Christmas tree and collection of gifts will be drawn at the tea. The tree and gifts are on display in the lobby of Waldo County General Hospital and tickets are on sale in the gift shop at $1 each or 6 for $5.
