This year’s home was that of C. Yarnall and Elenore Abbott – he, an important photographer who had switched to painting and she a successful illustrator and painter – who moved to Rose Valley with their daughter in 1916.  The following year they purchased the land on Possum Hollow and built a house designed by Yarnall himself.  Elenore was very involved in Rose Valley theater, especially scene design, as well as Rose Valley social life, her lasting impact being the building of the Rose Valley pool.  The Abbott house was also the home of Judge E. Wallace Chadwick, for whom the Chadwick Wildlife Preserve on Longpoint is named.

As usual there will be light fare including tea or slider sandwiches, assorted summer salads, and desserts served.  Beverages include wine, beer, cider, ice tea and lemonade. Information on the house and it’s design elements will be available.
