The Lake County Women's Coalition decided to honor the Women of World War 2. These women had a profound impact on the way women's roles are viewed. Many women worked in the military, and many others took over the jobs that the men held before going off to war. These women proved their ability to meet the challenges of "men's work" and succeed. So, we look forward to honoring these women on:

"It often seems that the history of women is written in invisible ink. Even when recognized in their own times, women are frequently left out of the history books. To honor our 2010 theme, we are highlighting pivotal themes from previous years. Each of these past themes recognizes a different aspect of women’s achievements, from ecology to art, and from sports to politics."
