Bring your kids, grandkids, neighbors and friends and march in the footsteps of your ancestors and help to instill in young people a lifelong passion for history. Join the American Battlefield Trust at Gettysburg for this special “Generations” event, designed to help adults share their passion for history with younger people.

More than a century and a half ago, 12,000 Confederate soldiers assaulted the center of the Union line at Gettysburg in the most famous attack of the Civil War. Today, this event is commonly known as "Pickett’s Charge," named after the commander of one of the Confederate division leaders.

Outmaneuver your opponent, eat some hardtack, and learn about one of the most famous charges in American military history. The event is free and open to all who come with someone of another generation.

The event is free and open to all but is geared toward kids. The ideal ages are 6-17.

Featuring:

The school of the soldier
Outflank your opponent!
Pickett's Charge
