LeDuc Estate Civil War Sunday
Time: 11:30 am
Join The New Pearl Buttons for the greatest hits of the Sixties---the 1860s, that is! We'll be near the icehouse as usual, with three shows on Sunday afternoon (the event goes two days, but we're there Sunday only). We play songs and tunes beloved by Lincoln, the LeDuc family, and the people who lived through the Civil War. Great family fun for this event, all over the grounds. Modest admission charged each day.
