Scene Around Town: Dallas Arboretum and Friends of the Katy Trail

As Society Editor for the Katy Trail Weekly I oversee the publication's Scene Around Town feature, which shines a spotlight on nonprofit and community events each week. In this week’s August 8 issue, I’m featuring scenes from the 37th Mad Hatter’s Luncheon themed “Celebrating Spring in the South”.  Monies raised fund the development, growth, and maintenance of A Woman’s Garden, a major garden at the Dallas Arboretum. Also featured were scenes from Friends of the Katy Trail who recently held their annual Donor Appreciation Party at the home of Sarah Ketterer and Alan Vorwald where guests heard updates on the Katy Trail.

Have an event you’d like to submit for editorial consideration? Here’s what you need to email me:

• Send a minimum of 4 images for consideration.

  • No more than 4 people in each shot.

  • No repeats (meaning the same person can’t be in multiple shots)

  • Guests need to be posed and smiling into the camera. No candids.

• You must ID the people in each photo (left to right)

• Tell me the name of the event and provide a brief description of the event (no more than 75 words)

• Please send one event submission per email with the name of the event in the Subject line
