On May 12th There was a special event as one of our Camp Charlotte members went down to Louisville Ky. to participate in the ceremonies of the Marquis de Lafayette return to the interior of the newly form United States of America as he traveled to thank the Americans and wish them well. There were many attendees with many in period clothing. An added touch was the presence of the 3rd United States Infantry Regiments “Old Guard” fife and drum Corps. The main activity was the crossing of the foot bridge that Lafayette crossed over the Ohio into Indiana which was reenacted with many in the procession. Once over to the other side a Patriot Memorial Ceremony a Liberty tree dedication and grave marking ceremony took place at the Veterans Memorial Park. This was hosted by the Indiana Daughters of the American Revolution Ann Rogers Clark chapter. This was followed by a Military Tribute 24 gun salute and unveiling of the Pomeroy Foundation Marker.
