Commander's Challenge

"Commander's Annual Challenge" is a chance to sponsor a luminary in honor of the members of the 7th that were killed at the Battle of Gettysburg. The luminaries are $18.63 each and the money helps to defray the cost of the luminaries placed in the Gettysburg National Cemetery during Remembrance Day weekend. Of course you can sponsor these in the name of a loved one or you own Civil War ancestor. If you are interested you can mail your check made payable to the Francine Camp to our Camp Secretary. I you wish to sponsor someone from the 7th, the list is below.
