North Carolinians at Gettysburg
October 8-10, 2021
After a two year hiatus from in-person Civil War Institute programming due to COVID-19, we are excited to welcome you back to Gettysburg for a special weekend-long program, October 8-10! This event, which will focus on North Carolina in the Civil War, will include lectures and battlefield tours exploring life in the Old North State throughout the war, as well as the experiences of North Carolinians during the battle of Gettysburg.
Speakers and tour guides include Judkin Browning (Appalachian State University), Peter Carmichael (Gettysburg College), Scott Hartwig (Independent Historian & retired Supervisory Historian, Gettysburg National Military Park), Ashley Whitehead Luskey (Gettysburg College), Christopher Gwinn (Gettysburg National Military Park), and Daniel Vermilya (Eisenhower National Historic Site).
Please check out our full schedule of events and speaker bios. Attendance is $250.00/person and includes all lectures, tours, bus transportation for Saturday’s programming, Friday night cocktail social, and boxed Panera lunch on Saturday. Space is limited; REGISTER now!
Please note: This October in Gettysburg is already scheduled to be a very busy month. We have reserved room blocks for our registrants at several local hotels and would encourage you to book your room sooner rather than later!
For questions, please contact Heather Miller at civilwar@gettysburg.edu or 717-337-6590.
We look forward to finally reuniting with old friends and making new ones in Gettysburg this October!
