The 1988 Awards Banquet was again held at the Crowne Plaza in Natick, Massachusetts. Kathy Stevens and Roberta Dearborn were installed as President and Vice-President respectively.
A Speakers Bureau was formed shortly thereafter. Their very active schedule included presentations at Fenway Community Health, BAGLY (Boston Alliance of Gay and Lesbian Youth), and the Samaritans (Suicide Prevention and Counseling) to mention but a few. Jackie McDonald assumed responsibility for all aspects of the Annual Spring Outing. The Boatslip Beach Club served as the center of activities.
Ed Note: Jackie McDonald was a long-time very active member of the Club until she suddenly passed away on August 15, 1993. She had an exceptionally interesting experience at one of the earlier Tiffany Club Spring Outings. Her brother, Meagan, arrived in Provincetown to participate in the outing. Until then, neither knew the other was a Cross-dresser.
Club activities remained active and robust throughout the remainder of the year and far into the next. The Thanksgiving Banquet was held at the Norembega Marriot in Newton, Massachusetts. The Awards Banquet, January 1989, was held at the Crowne Plaza, Natick. Roberta Dearborn was installed as President, Sherry Lorraine as Vice President. Arlene Unger assumed the position of Editor of Rosebuds. Arlene, incidentally, moved to Holyoke, Massachusetts a few years later and became one of the founders of the Sunshine Club. In April, the Board of Directors, because of the financial burden on the club, voted to discontinue subscriptions to Tapestry Magazine for club members.
Up until then, a subscription to Tapestry Magazine was one of the benefits of club membership.
