The ladies were among a crowd about 300 at the Tea in the Solarium at the Manor House at Wildwood Preserve Metropark on West Central Avenue. The site hosts the event the first Friday of each month from April through November. Attendees sip tea and eat small sandwiches in a setting that recalls a genteel time.
