Amelia Earhart had a fearless, adventuresome spirit. Due to her own health issues, she became a nurse and considered a career in medicine. But that idea was dashed when she took a 10-minute plane ride. “By the time I had gotten two or three hundred feet off the ground … I knew I had to fly.” This opened a window that was filled with a passion for flying. Fulfillment was not easy, but she persevered, and the rest is history.
Earhart was an example of a women who pursued a budding interest and made it into a lifetime career. Sheryl Faye’s one woman show, portrays Earhart’s indomitable spirit while describing her amazing story.
Admission is Free – Refreshments will be served.
