Women in Frederick History
with Chris Haugh
We have women to thank for many of the biggest and best contributions to Frederick's rich history. This course chronicles interesting events and institutions on the local level, and spotlights a collection of inspiring and influential female figures who helped pave the way. Over the years, these trailblazers worked tirelessly in their own ways to make the world a better place and shape the course of history, whether they were successful in business, on the front lines of important protests, made important contributions to the arts, represented their country at the Olympics, or inspired fellow women to speak their own minds. They have all brought their innovative beliefs and talents to life with dedication, passion, and plenty of hard work.
Class # 4 will consist of a 2-hour "Frederick Women"-inspired walking tour of Mount Olivet Cemetery focusing on some of the individuals talked about in class and buried here.
