I'd heard of the red hats in my neighborhood, but I had no idea they were part of a national, for-profit organization. I'm all for eccentricity, but dictated eccentricity ceases to be fun. When I retire (I'm already over fifty), instead of joining the [my neighborhood] red hats, I'll join the [my neighborhood] women's club, which does valuable things like raising funds for community parks and the local historical society, in addition to having the kind of fun that is the expressed purpose of the red hats.
