Since the very beginnings of Countryside, our Children’s Tea has been a beloved winter tradition, started by our founders, Annette and Frank, in their home many years ago. As tradition continues, it has brought joy to generations, and this year, I am honored to carry the spirit of this special occasion forward.

This year, each class will have the opportunity to join our 6th graders and me at the North Lodge, where we’ll enjoy freshly baked cookies, seasonal fruits, and juice. To add to the magic, our 6th graders will also be reading charming winter stories for everyone to enjoy. It’s always been one of my favorite events with the AYM children, and I’m thrilled to share this joyful experience with all of the classes this time around.

I look forward to celebrating the season with our community, keeping the warmth and connection of this tradition alive for many more years to come!
