Promise in a New Land: Migrating and Settling in Nebraska - Presentation by Cherrie Beam-Calloway

Discover what it was like to be a Nebraska settler between 1845 and 1870 in this engaging, first-person, Chautauqua-style presentation at the South Sioux City Public Library.

Based on historical facts, this spellbinding performance by Bean-Callaway takes you on a journey through time—sailing the ocean, riding the wagon trail, battling prairie fires, and experiencing both the hardships and joys of pioneer life. Laugh, cry, and connect with stories of perseverance, loss, celebration, and what it meant to become an American. This program is appropriate for all ages and serves as the first installment in a three-part series that includes "The Courage to Continue" and "Grit n Gumption".
