W oodbridge LIFE April April 1 is April Fools’ Day, sometimes called All Fools’ Day, a day of practical jokes and hoaxes. Although April Fools’ silliness can be good for one’s health by bringing laughter and stress relief, sometimes such tomfoolery is misunderstood and, although it seems fun, can cause hard feelings. In past years, the Woodbridge LIFE Editorial Team has experimented with April Fools’ pranks, even an April Fools’ edition. However, the idea was not received as positively as we had hoped. There is only one hoax in this edition of Woodbridge LIFE and it is easy to find. Start looking!

Women of Woodbridge President Birdie Nieri partnered with Connie Mihos (not shown) to host a table called “Dream Boats – Il Divo” at the 2017 annual afternoon tea held in February. A black table cover accentuated red and white glassware, chargers, teapot and floral arrangements. The black shelf held photos of Il Divo, a multi-national classical crossover quartet that, by the way, is not only talented but quite good looking! The Women of Woodbridge annual tea is a fundraiser for Manteca Unified School District’s Health Services Department that helps provide clothing, hygiene products and school supplies to Manteca area children. More photos of the creatively decorated tea tables and their hostesses may be found on pages 18 and 19.
