SUMMARY:Citizen Meets Soldier
DESCRIPTION:“Citizen Meets Soldier” is a living history of 1863 in Carroll County\, Maryland. Join the Union Mills Homestead to commemorate the events of the hot summer of 1863. Walk in the footsteps of the citizens of Carroll County\, Maryland\, who were divided in their loyalties\, and the Union and Confederate soldiers who camped along Big Pipe Creek at Union Mills in the days surrounding the Battle of Gettysburg. Union Mills’ Civil War encampment will celebrate and commemorate the chaos and excitement of the Civil War in Carroll County\, Maryland. \nIn the days surrounding Lee’s Second Invasion of the North\, small towns in Carroll County — including Union Mills — saw the movement of both U.S. and Confederate Armies\, supply wagons\, injured soldiers\, and an important skirmish occurred in nearby Westminster. There\, U.S. Cavalry charged headfirst into Confederate Cavalry under the command of Maj. Gen. J.E.B. Stuart. But for a few hours\, a battle may well have occurred at Union Mills\, as it lay dead center in the Union Army’s defensive line along Big Pipe Creek and Union Mills served as the site of overnight encampments by both Stuart’s Confederate Cavalry and Sykes’ Fifth Corps of the U.S. Army. Stuart’s Cavalry pulled out of Union Mills just hours before the Union Army arrived! \nLiving history portrayals\, encampments\, and historic displays interpreting this period will take place on the scenic and spacious grounds of the Union Mills Homestead. This event is $10 per car.

SUMMARY:One Vast Hospital - Downtown Frederick Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Explore the incredible Civil War history in Downtown Frederick with expert guides from the National Museum of Civil War Medicine. \nEvery Saturday at 10:30 a.m. and Sunday at 12:00 p.m. from April until September\, docents from the National Museum of Civil War Medicine will explain how Frederick became “One Vast Hospital.” Arguably the most trying moment in city’s history came after the Battle of Antietam in the fall of 1862. The town’s population doubled when 8\,000 wounded soldiers were delivered by ambulance to make-shift hospitals throughout Frederick. Walking tours last for an hour to an hour and a half. \nTickets are $15 and include admission to the National Museum of Civil War Medicine in addition to the walking tour. Tickets are free for Museum members\, but you must still reserve your spot. Reservations will be accepted on a first come first served basis. \nContact Chris Reed at chris.reed@civilwarmed.org for more information.
