Special Event

Widow Spy

 

On October 17th at 6:30 in the CAR we will open our venue to men and women. Doors will open at 6:15 with the program beginning promptly at 6:30. 


Retired CIA officer and author of Widow Spy, Marti Peterson will speak about her career and story about being a covert CIA officer in Moscow in the 1970’s. Peterson was one of the first women to be assigned to Moscow, a very difficult operating environment during the Cold War. Her story begins in Laos during the Vietnam War where she accompanies her husband, John, a CIA officer and Green Beret. Ultimately, her husband dies in a helicopter crash in 1972. She will then describe joining the CIA, walking the dark streets alone in Moscow, and placing dead drops for her agent. Her relentless pursuit of her agent by the KGB ends with her arrest. Her career lasts 32 years and includes many exciting moments.

One of the aspects of Wise Women is to pay it forward.  Each month we pick a charity and collect a small donation to support that charity. Suggested donation is $10 per person. All funds collected go to the charity. This month, Michael and I will match the collected funds to go to the RED CROSS to help people affected by Hurricane Helene.
