Welcome

We have been involved with this group for about 7 years.  This year we decided to make ourselves offical.

Though not a recognized battlefield, Shippensburg became a staging area for Confederate troops prior to the Battle of Gettysburg.  Residents endured a skirmish and the occupation of the town by 20,000 Confederate troops from June 23-30, 1863.  The annual March to Destiny relives these events of the Civil War Era.  Come and help us keep history alive.
