First Lady Dolley Madison Visits Bay Village

The League of Women Voters Cuyahoga Area, Bay Village Chapter, invites Bay residents to a special presentation by actress Carol Starre-Kmiecik depicting the fourth First Lady of the United States, Dolley Payne Madison. The event is set for Tuesday, January 12, 2010, 7:00 pm, at the Bay Middle School Cafeteria, 27725 Wolf Road, and is part of Bay’s year-long Bicentennial celebration.

Dolley Madison was First Lady of the United States (1809 – 1817) during the time the Cahoon Family settled in Bay Village (October 10, 1810). The presentation is educational and entertaining. With her depiction of Dolley Madison, Starre-Kmiecik puts the time frame of 1810 in historical perspective, and provides a personal point of view of events during Dolley’s residence in the White House.

The January 12th event is also part of “60 Minutes With the League,” an ongoing public series hosted by the League of Women Voters, featuring notable speakers on topics of interest. For more information, please call 440 835-0508 or visit the League website at www.LWVCuyahogaArea.org
