Tea with TeaRisa at Miss Susan's


Let me introduce you to TeaRisa. You'll find her enjoying her tea on our front porch, and she invites you to join her at Miss Susan's for a "Cuppa."
This is our official Tidewater Inn Scarecrow for Madison's first Annual "Sea Shop Scare(crow)" event, a month-long scarecrow contest which culminates in a Sea Shop Scare(crow) Soiree (party!) on October 28th.
TeaRisa was the creative idea of Kathy, one of our housekeepers. As we tossed around the many ideas for our potential scarecrow she suggested a lady having tea because the Tidewater Inn was originally built by Susan J. Hart in the 1920's to be her Tea Room. The rest of us came on board and ran with the idea, and Miss TeaRisa was born.
Come on by to say "hello" and to see Miss TeaRisa throughout October, and be sure to come to Madison to see all of the other 65 or more scarecrows that are all around town, along Rte 1, Wall Street and Rte 79 up to Bradley Road. Prizes for the best scarecrow, determined by popular vote (so come cast your vote for us!), in the categories of SEA, SHOP, SCARE, or Best All Around, will be awarded at the Soiree, 5-8pm, Thursday, October 28th in downtown Madison in the New Alliance Bank courtyard. Come for the fun, the food, and the special "spooky sales."
