I do a first person presentation of Mother Bickerdyke. I have visited her gravesite and her monument in Galesburg, IL. I have given my presentation to school children, senior groups, DAR and SAR groups, a veterans group in a prison and many others.

That sounds great! The deadline is approaching so please consider following the link above in order to fill out the application form. The performance would be a great opportunity to share the stories of women involved in the war.

Hi,
I’m a month late on the deadline. I just came across this notice this morning. Wondering if I can still submit an application for consideration?
