Seminary Ridge Museum and Education Center

This Thursday, June 4, at 6:00pm in the Third Floor Meeting Room at the Gettysburg Library (140 Baltimore Street), join Codie Eash, SRMEC Director of Education and Interpretation, as he presents “‘To Make True and Complete the Declaration’: Gettysburg Veterans and the Legacy of the Revolution.” Registration is required through Adams County Library System at https://www.adamslibrary.org/event/make-true-and-complete-declaration-gettysburg-veterans-and-legacy-revolution-77537.

In his Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln famously opened with a call back to America’s founding “four score and seven years” earlier, in 1776. Many of the “brave men, living and dead, who struggled here” likewise made similar statements of their own, during and after the Civil War. Codie will explore the meaning of the Declaration of Independence and the American Revolution through the writings of those who fought here in 1863.

We're thrilled to be part of this event with our friends at Bobblehead George later this year!

We are happy to announce our upcoming dinner & fundraiser. The event will be held on November 5, 2026 at John Wright Restaurant. John Wright's executive chef, Jim Switzenberger, will prepare a menu honoring the tastes of the Founders!
The evening will include an panel discussion featuring:
Jim McClure, Scott Mingus, Sr., Dominish Miller, Codie Eash, & State Representative Joe D'Orsie!
