Linda Hoerner's centerpieces also depicted different eras of skirt fashions, and were auctioned off at each table.

And everyone received a Linda Hoerner souvenir with all the centerpiece outfits. If you signed up for absentee souvenirs, I'll be getting those out this week. If you registered but couldn't attend, you'll also receive the souvenirs.
