Holding on to tradition, members of the P.E.O. Chapter I held their annual Chautauqua Tea as a kickoff event for the Great American Brass Band Festival weekend.

The Chautauqua Tea is the philanthropic educational organization’s main fundraiser of the year. Proceeds go toward helping the advancement of women’s education through loans, grants, scholarships and other awards.
