The Tukwila Centennial Spring Tea took place on April 26th at the Nelson Historical Trust.

The Nelsen House is listed on the state register of Historical places, and is a beautiful example of turn-of-the-century Victorian Architecture.

This Spring Tea was held in honor of the Tukwila Centennial Celebration, and benefited the Tukwila Children’s Foundation general fund.  Over $1000 was raised.

Attendees included:

• Former Mayor Steve Mullet
• Mrs. Louise Strander
• Councilperson Verna Griffin
• Councilperson Kathy Hougardy
• Councilperson Joan Hernandez
• School Superintendent Ethelda Burke
• Betty Gully
• Helen Ives
• Mary Fertakis
• Jenny McCoy

The event sold out weeks in advance, and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
