The BHHA is proud to announce that it has recently received a grant of $250 from the Galesburg Community Foundation to help support Civil War Days for Schools on Friday May 8. In this program, a living history camp will be set up in the village park, where demonstrators and Civil War reenactors will be on hand to teach area students about Civil War era/19th century topics and skills. Some of the topics that will be covered include the following: Artillery Cannon Drill, Cannon Balls and Projectiles, Children Can Do Genealogy, English Country Dancing, the Soldier’s Grave: Civil War Cemeteries and the Men Who Rest There, and much more. The BHHA is very thankful for the generous continued support given by the Galesburg Community Foundation.
