On October 19th, 1864, a surprise attack by Confederate troops in the Shenandoah Valley at Cedar Creek appeared to be a solid victory for the South. Thanks to the heroic efforts of the Vermont's 8th Regiment, the Union reclaimed the battlefield. Mike Soules will describe the role of the Vermonter in the battle, the consequences of the battle, as well as the significance of the Cedar Creek Room in our state capitol.

Admission is free, but donations are appreciated.
