MSHS presents Women in War

MSHS presents Women in War
March 1, 2025 to March 2, 2025

Mark your calendars now to learn about an uncommon soldier!

Experience the story of Sarah and Lyons Wakeman. The same person who led two very different lives through a time when our nation was divided. View the war through the eyes of a soldier who hid their identity and served in secrecy in order to fight for the cause they believed in. Come meet Sarah Rosetta (aka Lyons) Wakeman as we review her role in the war and Red River Campaign as told through her own personal letters.

Saturday March 1  - 10:00 am - 3:00 pm and Sunday, March 2 - 1:00 - 3:00 pm
