ottbern 3Jlltn(Ji - Salt Creek Civil War Round Table
Dear Program Director: Want to put on a good program about the Civil War at your school, library, historical society or museum? With the sesquicentennial of the Civil War coming up in 2011, The Coalition of Civil War Round Tables of Northern Illinois want to spur interest in the Civil War. So we've put together a "speaker's bureau" of local published authors and experts, who've presented programs throughout the Midwest. And in this era of tight budgets, most of these programs come free! The attached file details the presenters, their programs, and contact information. Please contact each individual regarding their program and please check this file regularly for ~ottbern 3Jlltn(Ji~ updates.
