In 1861, an unspoken vow to make tomorrow better than today catapulted a group of Kingston, Georgia women to achieve several historical firsts. They established the Confederacys first hospital and held the Souths first Confederate Memorial Day. Today, the group, known as the Kingston Womans History Club, continues the Confederate Memorial Day ceremonies honoring both Union and Confederate dead. Their ceremony is credited with being the longest running of its type in the United States. Loyal to their mission of service, the ladies have served soldiers in every American war since 1861. During peacetime, they turned to community service and became the second chartered womens club in the state. They named the states flower and established the towns park that is home to the clubs two-building museum complex. Written in narrative form, Tomorrow is Better tells the Kingston Womans History Clubs story through the eyes of four generations of altruistic women who weathered war, fire, financial obstacles, and even General Shermans occupation.
