Note: The George Rogers Clark Memorial is being renovated so the annual ceremony marking the anniversary of the capture of Fort Sackville will be held in the Old Cathedral adjacent to the park grounds. The approximately one-hour ceremony will start at 1100 and the guest speaker will be Rev. John Schipp. A luncheon (cost about $10.00) sponsored by the Vincennes Historical and Antiquarian Society will be held following the ceremony at the Vincennes University Beckes Student Union. We need to give a headcount for the luncheon so please let me know ASAP if you can participate in the Color Guard and if you want to attend the luncheon.
