Women’s Memorial to Celebrate 9^th Anniversary

The Women In Military Service For America Memorial will mark the 9^th anniversary of its dedication with a reception and dynamic one-woman theatrical production by DC actress Kate Campbell Stevenson on Sunday, Oct. 15, 2006, at 2:30 PM. Also included will be a special presentation of the Alliance For National Defense (AND) annual Positive Voice Award. The reception and the cutting of the anniversary cake will follow Ms. Stevenson’s performance.

Kate Campbell Stevenson combines over 25 years of professional experience in music, theater and education to create her one-woman show “Women: Back to the Future.” She has starred in over 30 Broadway musicals produced in regional theaters across the nation and she has performed in radio and TV commercials. In her one-woman show, Kate brings to life historical women with “can do” attitudes. At this special, not-to-be-missed anniversary performance, Kate will feature a prominent and powerful advocate for military women.

The event is free and open to the public. Those interested in attending should call 703-533-1155 or 800-222-2294 to reserve a seat.

The Women In Military Service For America Memorial is the nation’s only major memorial honoring all servicewomen, past, present and future. Located at the gateway to Arlington National Cemetery, it is readily accessible by Metro (Blue Line). Paid parking is available at the Arlington Cemetery Visitor Center.
