On May 11, 2023, the Beaufort Republican Women’s Club and their special guest, S.C. First Lady Peggy McMaster, enjoyed an afternoon tea at the Coosaw Point River Club. The event was open to all tea lovers. Hostesses decorated their tables according to themes they chose and were judged by the First Lady. Candice Dixon won the best table award and Karen Eaton won for the best hat. The First Lady spoke about her passion, the prevention of human trafficking in South Carolina, and she invited attendees to visit and tour the Governor’s mansion. A check was presented to the First Lady at the end of the event to be donated to the nonprofit Governor’s Mansion Foundation, which utilizes private funds to maintain the historic mansion, and many men and women in attendance were inspired to learn more about ending the atrocities of modern day slavery in our State.
