Lehigh Valley Civil Wars Days ~ June 1 & 2

Screen Shot 2019-04-25 at 4.12.24 PM.png

Our CWRT is pleased to once again support this event especially as it educates citizens about the Civil War and benefits historic preservation.

 We need volunteers as we will have a table distributing information about our organization.

Slots are 9 to 1 and 1-5 on Saturday and 9-1 on Sunday.

Please see me at the May meeting or email at sartilly@hotmail.com if you can help.

 Thank you, Ed Root
