Gettysburg Parade Wraps Up the Year
This past weekend at the Remembrance Day Parade in Gettysburg was lucky to fall just between the really bad weather fronts. Saturday proved to be cool, overcast, but clear and enjoyable. The Division formation was about 75 personnel and the overall parade was huge. The shops were packed and I heard one owner mention that there seemed to be more people this year than in the past.On battlefield news, if you have not been to Gettysburg this year, you will be happy to know that Devil's Den has been cleared of trees and brush. The "Slaughter Pen" directly across has been completely logged and cleared of about an acre of 140 plus years of overgrowth. Both areas now appear more like they did during the battle and the view from Little Round Top gives you a better picture of the action on July 2nd.
It is my hope that we can get an even larger turnout next year. Remembrance Day is a good way to end the reenacting season!!
