GDG- Muster Events - Saturday Morning June 2

[Dennis Lawrence]

Hello,

                                                             Saturday June 2

             * 7:00 A.M. -  Garry Adleman  - Spangler's Spring: Canteens, 
Colgrove, Culps, and Paper Cups.

               Stories of soldiers sharing water on the night of July 2, 
have made Spangler's Spring one of the most recognized landmarks associated 
with the Battle of Gettysburg. Beyond the mythology, however, the spring 
has it own unique history. Used as a picnic grounds by the residents of 
Gettysburg starting in the 1840s, the area saw intense fighting on the 
morning of July 3, 1863.  Drag yourself out of bed and join LBG Garry 
Adelman as he uses first-hand accounts and scores of images to discuss the 
battle, the Henry Spangler farm, nearby Rock Creek, and the history and 
evolution of the famous spring itself.  Surrounding areas of Culp's Hill 
may be covered as well, time allowing.

               Please park on East Confederate Avenue and at Spanglers Spring.
