The 2015 Red Hat Gala was hosted by the West Coast Queens and was held at the Sheraton East Hotel in Tampa. This years Gala was a three day event that had a variety of activities. Which on Thursday were a Meet ‘N’ Greet as we checked in and a Dinner Cruise on the Yacht Starship. On Friday there were optional tours to the Ringling Museum or Mount Dora and a Winery tour.
After the tours we had a evening of Circus events and a Circus costume contest. WCQC did a fabulous job planning and executing this event. I believe everyone enjoyed themselves.
On Saturday the Gala ended with a Victorian Luncheon. Everyone was dressed in Victorian outfits and Hats which were then judged and winners chosen for the one that best represented the authentic dress and hat of the era. I think everyone there were all winners. There was also a Victorian Fashion Show. What a wonderful 3 days was had by all. Can’t wait until next year.
