- Photo submitted to Times Observer The girls in the summertime American Girl Club met on July 12 for high tea at the Arbor Coffee House & Tea Room in Warren. Celebrating the Colonial American Girl, Felicity of 1774, the girls in the club began by making a handheld folded fan, then enjoyed a social time together with tea and scones. The girls really loved the delicious clotted cream and berry jam, dressing up and using fine china, and have learned much about the historical enjoyment of attending a tea.

Bring your children to the ancient city of Rome where they will travel back into Bible times without setting foot outside our community.
Each day your children can become part of history as they see, hear, touch, and even taste what it was like to live in Rome during biblical times. They will explore authentic marketplace shops, visit the Apostle Paul, sneak to the cave where the Underground church meets, take part in games, dance to lively Bible songs, and sample tasty tidbits as they discover more about the early church.
To pre-register your child online, visit www.ybfree.org, or link directly at https://vbspro.events/p/events/yfmc2018. Early registrations will be placed into a drawing for a gift basket to be drawn the last day of vacation bible school (must be present to win).
