SUMMARY:RESCHEDULED Legendary Ladies of Oakwood- Well Behaved Women Rarely Make History
DESCRIPTION:Out of an abundance of caution we are postponing this event.  A new date will be selected soon.   If you have registered already- and cannot attend the new date we will refund your money. \n  \nHang tight on the new date– we appreciate your patience during this unprecedented time. \n  \nWe invite you to meet the ladies that helped shape the history of Raleigh\, indeed the Legendary Ladies of Oakwood.  They were reformers and socialites\, lovers\, victims of the Spanish Flu– but they all had families who loved them. \nYou will be guided through Oakwood Cemetery to meet these legendary ladies at their graves.   A once in a lifetime opportunity to hear their stories in this unique way.
