***** Society News & Information *****

Several guests joined members of the society to experience a dynamic presentation by society member Gary Sellers on the Gettysburg battle and monuments.
Gary took the audience through the battle from the time the armies left Virginia through the climactic Confederate assault on July 3, interspersing descriptions of the action, the stories, past and present, of some monuments and some tidbits of special interest. Gary's understanding of the battle and his intense interest in it were well evident.
