Junior AOH Trip to Antietam

Here is a picture of the Junior Division last year in front of the Irish Brigade memorial at Gettysburg

On April 3rd, the AOH 32 Junior Division will make their second journey walking the same hallowed ground that the brave Irish Brigade walked during the Civil War.

WE NEED 3-4 ADULT CHAPERONES!

On Tuesday, April 3rd the Junior Division will leave Bishop Canevin High School at 6:00 a.m. sharp and arrive at Antietam at 10:00 a.m, pick up their guide and walk the very same route of the Irish Brigade. They will have lunch at 3:00 p.m., leave Antietam and will arrive back at school between 7:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.Here are the details.

Bear O'Connell is hoping to make the trip depending on doctor's orders, but we still need 3-4 adult chaperones. If any member would like to go, help and have fun, please email me.

Note: Here is some information on the famous Fighting 69th!

The Brigade's motto was "Gentle when stroked - Fierce when provoked!"
