This will be a unique opportunity to take hold of a post war, waiting to go home, never saw the elephant impression.  You will be sleeping, eating, marching, drilling, and conversing right where the original boys of the 30th Michigan did exactly 145 years ago.  This is Michigan’s original ground please come and support it and use it!
