It explores significant legislation and litigation that led to this integration. Significant milestones and hurtles are discussed along with the contributions of certain military women. Also discussed are effects of DEI and gay policy on women in the military. Finally, it will highlight the present administration’s attitude concerning women in today’s military. During our discussion period you will be encouraged to share your family’s experiences with women in the military.

Homeowner testimonials and photos from previous Home & Garden Tours “My husband and I have so enjoyed seeing other peoples’ homes on the Tour and felt it was time for us to show how proud we are of our home and garden. We felt we had a very special yard with our 14 fruit trees and vegetable garden, and I know that people really appreciated seeing what we had done. We had a ball doing this!” -Christine (and Joe) Citarella “It was fun to see friends and people who I knew from other clubs I am a member of come by to see my home on the Tour and connect with them in a whole new way.” -Sally Young “I especially enjoyed chatting with visitors, sharing our home and garden, and of course hearing all the lovely compliments! It was a happy, rewarding experience, and I’d encourage anyone who is considering opening their home to give it a try.” -Kris Knutzen
“Having my home on the HGC Tour was such a simple process from home consideration to selection through Tour Day activities. The Tour committee made the day of the Tour so stress-free and enjoyable for all the homeowners” -Debbi LoCicero
“We experienced such joy in sharing our home with all who came through the day of the Home Tour. Our decision to share our home for the Tour was one we treasure and remember fondly.” -Debbi and Mark Holmerud
