The GAR Hall in Boscobel will be open this weekend during the 8th annual Muskets & Memories Civil War Weekend. http://www.boscobelwisconsin.com/sched.html *excerpts from The Boscobel Dial, August 3rd edition, section 1, pg 1 Century-old minutes help reveal GAR's historic past The Hall became a Wisconsin Heritage site last June because it is the last hall in the state still being used for its orginal purpose -a meeting place for the WRC. Ten members strong, the WRC works hard to preserve records, equipment, and photographs from the Civil War and its aftermath. The Women's Relief Corp has alphabetized membership applications including all past members of the GAR and WRC along with their occupations and addresses. "We need new members, interested people and guides" Doris Cruckson stated. The WRC would like to grow stronger in order to continue the financing the prservation of the hall. The group wants to continue preserving the community's past and providing, as it always has, a meeting place to commemorate Civil War veterans.
