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.

SUMMARY:"Ancestors at Antietam" - Union Veterans’ Association of Maryland
DESCRIPTION:Join the Antietam Institute on Saturday\, August 1\, to learn about the Union Veterans’ Association of Maryland by Institute member and relic collector\, Kevin Boyer. The Union Veterans’ Association of Maryland was a Civil War veteran’s organization unique to this state. The presentation will discuss the history\, badges\, ribbons\, and ephemera of this group. Several Maryland soldiers (who participated in the Maryland Campaign) whose likeness is shown on some of the UVA of MD badges will be highlighted during the talk. \nHoward (Kevin) Boyer grew up surrounded by the history and places of the Maryland Campaign. This fostered an ardent interest in the Civil War and local history. He began collecting Civil War artifacts and ephemera at an early age. Kevin graduated from Boonsboro High School and attended Hagerstown Junior College and the University of Maryland at College Park. He retired in 2021 from Mack Trucks in Hagerstown\, MD. Following retirement\, he became an Antietam Ambassador at Antietam National Battlefield\, a member of the Antietam Institute\, and a docent at the Boonsboro Museum of History. \nThese monthly “Ancestors at Antietam” talks are free and open to the public – anyone may attend – and you do not need to register. The talks will be held at the Institute’s Education Center at 101W Main Street\, Sharpsburg\, beginning at 2 pm.
