Proper ladies of her time were supposed to be quiet, get married, have children, and stay home. Miss Barton would have none of that! She defied society’s conventions and risked her life in order to help others, thus becoming a true heroine. A passionate and moving public speaker, Clara dramatically relates how she became the first woman to work for the Federal Government, its first female department head, and America’s first woman ambassador.

Audience members portray Yankees and Rebels, “nay-sayers” and believers, in order to discover why Americans fought each other in the Civil War and what that meant on a personal level. You’ll be swept into her story of the Civil War, dangers of nursing at the Battle of Antietam, and her struggle to get America to sign the Geneva Convention. There are few better role models than Clara Barton, who still inspires us to “Never Give Up!”.

 

PLEASE NOTE: A portion of proceeds benefit American Red Cross of Chestnut Ridge, Prepare Western PA Initiative.

Joanne

Everything was perfect. Thanks to you and your staff.

Danielle

Everyone loved the venue; they loved the lanai set up and the outside tables in the shade. The catering kitchen was perfect for us to heat our apps and keep warm. Thank you for all of your tips and suggestions.

John

Everything was perfect!! You and your staff made everything go so smoothly and professionally we could not of asked for a more. Thank you for making our sister’s celebration a truly special day.

Sonia

Thank you for making everything happen so beautifully.  You are amazing.  It would not have looked and gone so wonderfully without all of your help.  Nadia’s Baby Shower on Saturday, October 21, 2017 wouldn’t have looked so fantastic without you.  Guests (Ladies) had such a great time.  And I announced, that without Mrs. Janice Barsoum, this would not have gone so well.  Thank you, Thank you, Thank you from my heart to yours.

Bonnie

I just wanted to share with you that I have heard very good feedback from all on the training held at your facility yesterday.  They mentioned that the site was lovely and that the attendant there was most cordial and helpful.  I’m sure you are in no small way responsible for our positive experience and I wanted to thank you for all you have done to help us succeed in getting this accomplished.

Tony

My family had a great evening.  Your staff was very polite and helpful.  The facility itself was perfect for us.  We could not be happier with evening and the center.  Thank you very much for your help with making a very memorable evening for my family.

Jean

The party was so very nice-- nothing but compliments. I wanted to thank you and the staff as everyone was very accommodating. Even my sister (who was the one that had the critical eye) was happy. She said the space was nice, everything was arranged well, and when we needed an adjustment for the "cookie table" Fred couldn't have been more helpful. She noticed the clean up went smooth and was impressed by the very attentive staff... The day was a delight and I will recommend the venue to ALL my friends.

Patty

Jordan and I want to thank you so much for your incredible service and facility! We had fun at our gender reveal and everything was perfect!
Thanks again!

April

We were very happy with the facility.  It was spacious and accommodated us perfectly.  Mark was very nice in letting me know if we needed anything, he would be more than happy to help.  Thank you for all of your services and allowing us to rent your facility.  We will be sure to keep you in mind for any upcoming meetings we may have.

John

Loved the room.  Going to be doing more workshops in May or June, would love to come back.

Kay

Thank you so much for helping to make the party a huge success. You do your work very well- I will definitely recommend the Garden Center to people.

Brittany

Not only was I pleased with everything on Saturday, but so were all of the guests. They commented on how beautiful the facility was especially since we had the outdoor patio to add some light and decor. You had a gentleman working on Saturday who was very helpful with everything and very pleasant to work with. I appreciate all that you and your staff did for my sister's baby shower, it turned out better than I ever expected.

Susan

Another wonderful party for the Swans! Thank you and your staff for all being so helpful and friendly!
