Hot on the heels of a recent column for the Bulletin regarding holding a series of ‘Royal Baby Shower’ teas for charity, Pam Stone, along with Wanda May and a group of spirited volunteers, will host their first benefit tea in the area at noon, May 3, in the parish hall of Holy Cross Episcopal Church in Tryon.

Stone got the idea after co-hosting a successful benefit ‘Royal Wedding Tea,’ to commemorate the wedding of Prince William to Catherine Middleton, held at Zenzara’s in Landrum, with all proceeds going to Mobile Meals.

“But this tea, held to celebrate the first royal heir of the couple, will benefit our local outreach, specifically young parents in need,” Stone explained. “We are going to throw a lavish tea with all the trimmings and all we request for those attending is a small ‘love offering’ and to bring a baby shower gift. These gifts will then be distributed to the babies in our community.”

“There are some amazing bakers who attend our church!” Stone added. “And Holy Cross has long been such an influential presence in our area, contributing their talents and finances to those in need that it seems only natural to hold our tea there.”
