Our organization is a direct descendant of the original Grand Army of the Republic, formed in the 1880s and is dedicated to keeping alive the memory of those who fought to save the Union during the American Civil War. Locally, we work with schools, cemeteries and parade organizers to promote an appreciation for the past. We're currently planning several new programs including revitalizing our women's auxiliary and planning a public lecture series. Our meetings are open to the public, and pot-luck bring food to share and your own drinks. We look forward to seeing you there.
