On Saturday, December 27, 2025, at 1 p.m, Sherman County area residents will have the opportunity to step back into America’s founding era with Remember the Ladies: Stitching Together a Revolution, a special presentation exploring the role of women during the American Revolution. Drawing from Abigail Adams’ famous plea to her husband, John Adams, to “remember the ladies” as the nation’s democracy was taking shape, this event highlights the courage, creativity, and resilience of the women who shaped history.

Sherman County Historical Society is on of the sponsors of this Humanities speaker, and it is completely FREE for attendees complements of the PBS documentary “The American Revolution.”
