Please join us for our Annual Connemara Tea and help us kick off the 2008 season in Region 1. Sun, January 6th. We are moving our annual tea to central Connecticut this year in hopes of bringing members from the southern areas of our Region together. The host site will be Hope Valley Farm, which is home to the Connemara half-breds, C.K.C. Katie (Erin Go Bragh x Feather in My Cap) and Crib Glas Mandolin (*Bobby Brown x G.G.s Dove).

Please bring something to share for brunch along with your Connemara pictures, stories and ideas for the upcoming season. We welcome all our members, young and old. So, please come and enjoy the event.

Contact Carolyn (860-228-8675) or Amy (413-367-2179) with questions.
