We update our schedule frequently, so please stop back and see what we have coming up! Heritage, Habitat & Health: Gettysburg
Summer Speaker Series
History is made every day.
We have all become a big part of history over the past year. As we continue to move forward, and look back on where we have been, and what we have done, we can't help but examine procedures and advancements that have origins rooted in the American Civil War. Nature, which is sometimes overlooked, played a factor in the Battle of Gettysburg, and throughout the Civil War. Similarly, during the pandemic, it became an intricate part of our health and wellbeing. There are a lot of interwoven pieces between Heritage, Habitat & Health, and we will explore these topics during our summer speaker series. - - - - - - - - - - - July 31st - Bradford Stone: Civil War Armies Medical Advancements: Modern Medical Crises August 7th - Patricia Rich: Nature of the Battlefield: Gettysburg August 21st - Noel Kline: Angels of the Battlefield: The Role of Nurses During The Civil War Civil War Church Services:
