HOW IT ALL STARTED!
The Red Hat Society is based on the poem "Warning" by Jenny Joseph. The founder of the Red Hat Society is Sue Ellen Cooper, who gave a red hat to a friend, Linda Murphy(in 1997)for Linda's 50th birthday. Others expressed an interest in receiving the same gift as they reached their 50th birthdays. So on April 25, 1998, Sue Ellen and four of her friends dressed in purple and red hats and went out to lunch and dubbed themselves the Red Hat Society. They decided to continue to get together wearing the same colors for the sole purpose of having some fun. Linda told a friend in Florida, Nancy Manning, about the little group and she started a similar one in her small town of Homosassa. In 2000,an article was featured in the July issue of "Romantic Homes" magazine entitled "Growing Old Playfully." From there on it is history!You can view the poem "Warning" by clicking on the "Link" Red Hat Society website below
A found photo of Jenny Joseph
"By putting on a Red Hat, I have instant sisters. Everywhere I travel, there is always a group of like-minded women that I can instantly relate to. With my sisters, my inner child feels free to come out and play...Yes, I am of age to wear a red hat, and proud of it."
