Teapots
Do you have a teapot the Senior Center could Borrow?
We are planning a volunteer appreciation tea on Wednesday April 20th and want to use some teapots for decorations. Some we may serve tea in as well. We have a sign up sheet at the hostess desk at the center and you can drop off your teapot and put your name on the bottom of it and we will get it back to you after the tea. We need around 20 teapots and once we have that many we will not borrow anymore for this time.
Thank you all for your generosity,
The Bemidji Senior Center
