The term “Dangerous Dames” was coined in honor of the Dayton suffragists who marched and protested on the streets of Dayton and were deemed “dangerous to polite society.” These suffragists went on to become the founders of our League in 1920. For over 100 years, the Dayton League has been at the forefront of voters’ rights and human rights, and is a strong proponent of diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Make your reservations here.

Sponsorship opportunities are available! For more information, call the League office at 937-228-4041 or [email protected].
