"Notable Women of Champaign County"
At 6:30 pm on Tuesday Nov. 13 the Champaign County Historical Society will host a meeting of Soroptimist International of Urbana, Ohio, during which Gloria Malone, Champaign County Reference Librarian, will present a program entitled “Notable Women of Champaign County.” From the first woman prosecuting attorney in Ohio to a woman who was repeatedly arrested for selling beer on Sunday, the stories abound about local women from all walks of life who helped make Champaign County what it is today. The museum and program are open to the public and prospective members are particularly invited. Founded in 1921, Soroptimist International is a world-wide volunteer service organization for business and professional women who work to improve the lives of women and girls in local communities and throughout the world. The Champaign County Historical Society is an all-volunteer, not-for-profit organization that preserves, protects, archives and displays the artifacts that tell the Champaign County story and provides a free public museum located at 809 E. Lawn Ave., Urbana. The museum is open from 10 -4 Mondays and Tuesdays and from 1-4 Sundays. |
