Gentlesirs,
TLDR - let me know if you're going and we'll make plans.
If you are interested in attending the Gettysburg degree on Saturday, 5/30, don't forget to purchase your tickets. I didn't realize it until I bought mine, but dinner is optional. Degree is $30, Dinner & Degree is $50. See the flyer below for more details & the link to buy your ticket. Dinner is at 6 pm, Degree at 7 pm.
Bring an apron & a chair. The smoking lamp will be lit.
There is no official ladies' program, but one of the lodge wives typically has an entertaining event or something. If you want more information, I will get you in touch with the lodge. Other ideas for our ladies are walking tours of the town. Also at 7 pm, Taps will be performed at Gettysburg National Cemetery. I attended one night last year, and it was very moving.
You may want to consider staying overnight.
For those interested in going up early, I plan on leaving Henry about 10 am and taking the tour and going to the cyclorama & museum.
