Running the Blockade--Some news of the War from Around the Country.

1. Civil War Weekend in Kentucky-- March 28-30 there will be a Civil War Weekend in Henderson, Kentucky's Audubon Mill Park. It is hosted by Cobb's Battery and the Adam Rankin Johnson SCV Camp 1910.

2. Louisiana in the Civil War-- The Union Parish Library of Bernice, Louisiana, and the Bernice Historical Society are co-sponsoring a six-week series of readings and discussions of the Civil War in Louisiana. Meetings will be Tuesdays from 6 to 8.

3. Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War-- The David Moore Camp 70 will be holding their March meeting at the home of its commander. Sorry, forgot to write down what city, but I think it was in Missouri.

4. Sauk City, Wi, Update-- The Civil War Memorial planned for the city cleared another hurdle when the city's Historical Preservation Committee approved the design. Next, the Sauk City Plan Commission has to ok it. I reported on this earlier.

5. Another Civil War Weekend-- The 11th annual Civil War Weekend will take place at Valley Park in Hurricane, SC. More than 250 re-enactors are expected.
