Cherrie Beam-Callaway

Homesteading was marked by considerable trial and error, plus challenges that many pioneers had never faced before.

Description

This is a sequel to the program “Promise in a New Land.” Beam-Callaway, in period attire with Irish brogue, depicts Nebraska life on the prairie, 1870 to 1885. Based on historical fact, she continues her story in a dramatic Chautauqua-style presentation. Selling the homestead, they begin again as cattlemen in the desolate Sandhills. Relive trials of building the sod house, lightning storms, crying for rain, rattlesnakes and the never-ending wind. Delight with the 4th of July, Christmas and American pride. The program has a sequel entitled “Grit n Gumption.” This program is appropriate for all ages.
