Free Program at 10:30 a.m.!: Iowa author, Linda McCann will be here to discuss her newest book, Rosie the Riveters of Iowa. Rosie the Riveter was the 'nickname' or promotional name for the women working during WWII. The women had to be encouraged to work, and there were many posters making the women look good and doing a good job. Iowa had 70 companies with military contracts during the war. Many women went to either coast to work, but many stayed in Iowa also. Linda was able to speak with 35 women who had worked as Rosie's. She shares those memories when she speaks. Linda will have copies of all her books available for purchase. The books are $20 each and she can only take cash or checks. Calendar
