UPCOMING MEETING

August 10th, 2010

Speaker: YVONNE HOLLENBECH
Yvonne a South Dakota ranch wife is the top award-winning cowgirl poet in America. She is one of the most published cowgirl poets in the West and also co-writes songs with many western entertainers. Yvonne's poetry reflects everyday experiences that arise while sharing the range with husband Glen and their neighbors. Mostly humorous in nature, her poems can take a turn toward the serious side. From homesteading to the present, Yvonne often writes about women on the ranches of the Great Plains. In addition to her presentations of cowboy poetry, Yvonne's program entitled "Patchwork of the Prairie" is one of the finest presentations in the heartland. Yvonne shows her collection of family quilts, spanning 140 years, including her own prize-winning creations. Poetry about quilts and quilters is presented throughout this awesome trunk show.
