This ''disorganization'' has no official rules although Supporting Member dues must be paid to be an official member of The Red hat Society. Of course, to be a Red Hatter, one must be fifty years old or older and wear a red hat and a purple ensemble at all meetings to keep up the spirit and purpose of the ''disorganization''. Women under fifty must wear a pink hat and lavender attire until THE BIRTHDAY. This adds an element of fun to aging, which we think is invaluable to women in our society who have learned to dread aging and avoid it at all costs. We believe aging should be something anticipated with excitement, not something to dread. So we all dress up in our red hats and purple clothes and just have fun.
