 “Begin at the beginning," the King said, very gravely, "and go on till you come to the end: then stop.” 

                                                                          
            ***************************************

    I will attempt to begin at the beginning...not sure where to begin but the beginning it shall be. Oh dear this post is getting curiouser and curiouser. I'm telling you gals, this Alice in Wonderland thing is starting to do strange things to my psyche. Maybe it has something to do with the overwhelming response we have had this year. We are still two weeks away from the Early Bird deadline and we are full. Oh dear...oh dear...oh dear. Now we have a waiting list. 
     We can hardly wait - although there is still a lot of work to be done to make it a memorable day for our participants. We are setting the table for tea and looking forward to a wonderful day. 

     Don't forget to put on your fancy dress according to Alice in Wonderland characters. For those brave enough, we will invite you to show off your fashion creativity in more ways than one. 

     We have a zany game for those competitive souls and lest anyone wonder - our Ye Olde Tea Shoppe will be open for business offering wonderful wares and baked goodies of every description. A giant Eat Me Basket will be up for grabs. Come find out how you could be the winner. 

     This is a mere smattering of what lies in store for you beyond the rabbit hole on April 27th at the Drayton Arena. Zeal for Teal will be celebrating 5 years. We are thrilled to be able to say we have been a part of helping raise awareness in our little community about ovarian cancer. Also we are so thankful to everyone who participates in many different ways to help raise crucial funds for the Ovarian Cancer Canada Walk of Hope.  

     So ladies, look forward to a superb day of fun, fellowship, laughter and hope as we make this 5th annual Zeal for Teal the best yet. Dig out those mad hats and anticipate greatness with a dash of madness!
                                          
                ***********************************************

    “But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, or you wouldn’t have come here.”

Alice's Tea Party Coming Soon to Wonderland Near You!



     Don't be late for this very important date. On April 27th, 2013 expect to be pampered and treated like royalty as the 5th Annual Zeal for Teal fundraiser for the Sunflower Seeds Ovarian Cancer Canada Walk of Hope, puts the kettle on and brews up another delightful day for scrapbookers and crafters of every persuasion. 

     The Drayton Arena is the place to be once again on this very special day designed just for YOU. Participants will gather to share in the fun and excitement of a jolly good tea party with all the trimmings. We have lined up our lovely vendors along with some special guests. Expect lots of games, prizes and surprises to keep you smiling, not to mention our Mad Hatters in the kitchen will be whipping up some fanciful delicacies for your dining pleasure. 

     And new this year - a fancy dress contest. Pick your favourite look-alike Alice in Wonderland character and come ready to earn a few rounds of applause, and maybe a prize or two. 

     Lest anyone be getting curiouser and curiouser, this tea party promises to be a spectacular time of laughter and charm. We are excited to let everyone know that we have extended our Early Bird deadline this year to February 14th  - a real sweetheart of a deal. $35 before that special day but still a bargain at $45 after that. $10 of your fee automatically goes to Ovarian Cancer Canada and every morsel of money and pinch of pennies earned after expenses will also go directly to Ovarian Cancer Canada. 

     Stay tuned for updates and notices. The executive are planning and scheming behind the scenes ready to put some delightfully rollicking plans into place for such an important cause. 

     But the first thing on the agenda was to get the word out to our charmingly and agreeable guests that the registration sheets are up and ready. The PayPal button is ready to  go and all we need to know is that you are pleasantly planning to join us! Can't wait to see you.
