Hats in the 1 2 3 74 5 Park 2019

It was the second official day of spring, and the McGovern Centennial Gardens were in full bloom in preparation for Hats in the Park, the Conservancy’s annual fundraising luncheon. Guests started the afternoon with a champagne reception, followed by a fantastic lunch under the tent on the formal lawn. Co-chairs Laura Wareing Wheless and Kelley Young planned a “tea with best friends in the 9 10 garden” affair, topped off— of course—with beautiful hats. Thank you to everyone who attended and supported the luncheon. 7 8 Photos by Jenny Antill
