The Ocean Beach Woman’s Club is holding their fourth annual hat contest scheduled for Thursday, April 4, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. , at Dirty Birds restaurant, located 1929 Cable St.
This competition is free and open to everyone who has a favorite hat – or who wants to craft a new one.
This year’s “hat-egories” are:
- Best Party Hat,
- Most Ridiculous,
- Most OBcean and
- Ode to Mae, a nod to the club’s garden tradition.
The inspiration for the contest originally came from a book by Rag columnist Kathy Blavatt called “Ocean Beach: Where Land and Water Meet.” It included a photo of Mae Clarke wearing a tall, elaborately decorated floral hat around 1960. The contest also will commemorate the Woman’s Club’s 100th anniversary.
Everybody in attendance will be able to vote for their choices in each category.
