Thursday, October 2H. i»m:' LetterTo Herald Editor:Thank You Dear Editor: The 208th anniversary celebration of the Edenton Tea Party is now history, and a very exciting chapter for local citizens. I’d like to thank Timothy Jones with the Norfolk chamber of commerce, John Sears, Chairman of the Norfolk Tricentennial Commission, and Captain Jim Wells, for providing the use of their historical skipjack “Nor folk” for the weekend. It was a tremendously popular addition to the festivities, and its inclusion - as well as a lovely reception for local dignitaries - was made possible through the generosity of the city of Norfolk in a city - to - city goodwill gesture to the town of Edenton. Also due a vote of thanks are the main tenance crews and super visors of the town of Edenton and Chowan County who took great pains to prepare the public parks and buildings for the festivities. The Chowan Herald is certainly to be commended for its extensive advance of the celebration, as are radio stations WCDJ and WBXB. Their help was instrumental in stirring up local interest and attendance. Heartfelt appreciation goes to three local organizations who staged full - scale operations to aid the Edenton Historical DR.

The Chowan Arts Council provided a timely show of Dwane Powell’s political cartoons, the Chowan County Extension homemakers prepared, gathered, and sold fresh pies, country ham biscuits, and apple cider to add to the authenticity of the 18th century street fair, And the Edenton - Chowan Optimist Club (and i- spouses) prepared the brunswick stew which was not only delicious, but also helped finance the rest of the ac tivities - truly a monumental task! Chowan county schools certainly extended “courtesy” to the effort. Special thanks go to Betty Bissett, Rob Boyce, and Marjorie Hollowell and their talented students who did everything from making banners and cookies to demonstrating the proper techniques for making 18th century type corn husk dolls and Christmas decorations. As with any volunteer effort of this size, countless hours went into the preparation and execution of the activities that made the event successful - and fun! While it would be im possible to mention all the wonderful people who selflessly gave of their time and creative talents, several committee heads and project chairmen deserve special recognition. I’m sure they would like to thank their comimttees - as would I - and I wish to extend a tip of the hat and eternal gratitude to: Mary Anne Morris, whose official designation of “En tertainment Chairman’’ grew to include music, crafts, films, games, and the church service; Bill and Marie Pierce, who oversaw all fund - raising ac tivities and personally handled the Carolina I Peddler; Carolina Abbe and Laney Layton who beautifully handled the awful task of getting the programs printed; Walter Abbe who was officially in charge of Hoppin’ John, but ended up also overseeing the authenticity of several other aspects of the day as well; Carol Davenport who worked diligently to provide publicity for the event; Fran Ward, whose tireless efforts resulted in delicious period foods for the 18th Century Street Fair; April Lane, who organized and carried out a major mailing as well as serving the Brunswick Stew supper; Ruth Rose, Rosa Davenport, and Sheila Snell at the Barker House for literally months of typing letters, taking messages, handling the money, and anything else they were asked to do; Terry Erlandsen, head of archaeology for the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources for an excellent presentation on 18th Century Afro American Culture; Lisa Baker for braving the cold to provide hot tea for everyone else in the Penelope Barker Tea Room; Mrs. Dorothy Graham for an exciting preview of the upcoming 400th Anniversary Celebration; Ann Parrish and her crew for arresting troublemakers; Frederick Inglis for his authentic and colorful hayrides; Virginia Wood tdr a most successful iPaetryiv.Auction, aided by auctioneer, Mr. Mims; Lueta Sellers for her support and help with dealings with logistics; Bill Benners with the Historic Albemarle Tour for spen ding all day videotaping the events; and Walter Cronkite for adding to the overall excitement as well as an invaluable contribution to the videotape program.
