Background: The Red Hat Society started in 2000 and is the fastest growing womens group in the US adding about 300 chapters every week. It is just for fun. Women who have had careers and families had little time for themselves or girlfriend type adventures and now that this group has reach 50 they want some time to have FUN. Women 50 and over where Red and Purple while the under 50 wear Pink and Lavender. Lexington, Kentucky has 31 chapters and there are over 500 in the whole state. Each group has its own personality and uniqueness. Our group started in 2004 and consists of over 20 Christian women from about 15 different churches. We do have a short devotional and a time to pray for one anothers need at each gathering and then we do our thing. We usually meet one Tuesday evening a month at a restaurant for dinner and some type of activity. Average attendance is usually about 12 at each function. |

Some of the things we have done: 1. Wedding night: had someone make a mini wedding cake and we showed everyone our wedding photo and told a funny story about that special day. 2. High school night: everyone brought a high school picture and told a story about something during high school. 3. Black and White night: Potluck at a home. Guessing game on old Black and White TV programs 4. Pigs in a Poke night: Everyone collect new stuff they didn't want and put it in a decorated bag and we auctioned each bag off without knowing what was inside. Money went for national dues and expenses. 5. Girlfriends night: Showed a film on Nicole Johnson's Girlfriends 6. Broadway Plays: We have seen Crowns, Les Mis, Oliver, and Riverdance 7. We had Barbie night were everyone had to make a Red Hat Barbie 8. We have gone to tea rooms 9. Our Christmas parties have been great.
