Why a playgroup for women?

Because we find it’s essential! Most women give their all to family, career, and community and forget to take time for themselves. Over 20 years ago, the RHS discovered that all of us need an occasional “recess” from the cares and duties of everyday life for no other purpose than to have fun with like-minded women. From under our signature brims, we create true, lasting friendships online and in person. Join us as we reshape the view of women in today’s culture. Red Hatters, those 50 and beyond, wear purple clothing and red hats. Women not quite 50 yet wear lavender clothing and pink hats. We are pleasingly not invisible.

Join today as a member or a Queen to connect currently online and eventually in your neighborhood.

About Us | Red Hat Society (5)

The Red Hat Society has provided me with sisters I would not have had. I have experienced travels to places like London, England and many cities in the U S that I have had so much fun and beautiful experiences. I can’t forget the marvelous cruises. The five F’s are very much a part of my life.

For me, my membership has allowed for camaraderie with so many ladies from all over the world; friends, friendships, and the sisterhood that I would have never ever known, if it had not been for the Red Hat Society. What a blessing!

Just when I thought it was time to sit back, relax and take it easy, the Red Hat Society came into my life! Little did I know it really was the time to “kick up my heels, travel, make new friends across the globe and have a ball!” Thanks, RHS for my second childhood!!!!

Welcome! First, we recommend that you grab a cuppa tea or a nice glass of wine, find a comfortable chair, and read our Member Handbook. It’s a quick read and has nearly everything you need to know to get started.

You’ll find a forum where you can talk to other members, learn creative and inspiring ideas about ways to play in our Members’ Corner, and receive emailed opportunities only available to members of the Society.

The fun is just getting started! The more you explore, the more you’ll discover all that your RHS membership has to offer.

We recommend that you start by reading the Members’ Handbook. It’s a handy Queen’s resource. You’ll fill out your profile, add your picture in regalia, and introduce yourself in all the groups and forums. There is the online calendar to peruse, the Members’ Corner for great ideas, the Red Hatter Matters online magazine and Hatquarters’ communications to read. When you are ready to start a chapter of your own, request one to be created from your profile. Click on your profile on the top right, then go to Groups > Create Group. Or you can click here. Congratulations on being the next RHS Queen!
