Here is our report from the last two weeks (end of June and beginning of July 2019) on the road. We attended a new event, for us anyway, in Quarryville, PA and then the annual re-enactment of the Battle of Gettysburg.

Here is an article on our participation in the 155th Anniversary Commoration of the Battle of Lynchburg at Historic Sandusky

In 2019, our annual Civil War Remembrance program in Greenfield Village at The Henry Ford featured a re-created U.S. Christian Commission Coffee wagon brought in by Chaplain Alan Farley and his wife Faith.  This very unique and incredible object was an unmeasurable enhancement to our program and was very popular with our guests and participants.  Each of the three morning of the program, we hitched two Percheron horses from our Equine Operations to the coffee wagon and toured Greenfield Village visiting the camps to deliver steaming hot coffee and fresh cookies.

Here is a link to the video of serving coffee to the troops Memorial Weekend at Greenfield Village/Henry For Museum, Dear Born, MI  This is the first time in the 58 year history of this wagon that it has been pulled by horses.  Stay till the end (only 2 minutes) to see the awesome drone shots.  Enjoy;  https://youtu.be/2HRzrBM5AWs
