Cedar Key Observes 101st International Women`s Day

Cedar Key Observes 101st International Women`s Day

Teri Brennan, Special to CKN

March 11, 2013 - This year`s event for International Women`s Day brought at least as many people this year as last, including the drive-bys, bike-bys, and passers-by. Though without the "hoop-la" of last year`s International Women`s Day 100th anniversary, this year brought out a dedicated crown, a curious crowd, and some people who just wanted to tell their story. The Vietnam Vet who spoke of his helping a woman at a convenience store on the way down from Ohio; the Canadian woman who told of her mother raising seven children within an abusive relationship; and the local man who has little but helps others more needy than he is. And, then there were the dogs dedicated to all people, of all genders, everywhere.

And. . . $50.00 was raised to support Another Way!


On Friday, March 8, Cedar Key women gathered at the big dock to mark International Women's Day. Foreground, L-R, Lois Benninghoff, Teri Brennan; above, L-R, Maggie Funchion, Connie Nelson, Kay Probst.


Dogs in support of International Women's Day, L-R, Buddy, Chloe, Tallulah.
