American Girl Doll Tea and Fashion Show, November 2016



Another year, another big event to raise funds for LPCH - probably the last one of this kind by PAA. 
American Girl Doll store at Stanford Shopping Center will be in charge of events in the future.
Enjoy these photos, click to enlarge. If you like more of them, email me, and I'll send all via the cloud.

Almost ready...starting to look festive...

Check out these goodies...all donated...see below...

Good Bye, probably for the last time for this venue, this event.





Mary Ann and Ellen are on the clean-up crew...

And again, husbands and partners are our steadfast helpers,
setting up and taking down when muscle power is needed!

Many thanks for the many hands which made these events another success. 
We'll hear the totals at the January 18, 2017, General Meeting and Lunch at the University Club in Palo Alto.
