Walk in President Lincoln’s Footsteps
Edited by Jennifer L. Price
Get
up close and personal with President Lincoln this President’s Day in Gettysburg,
site of his most-famous speech. The Bed and Breakfasts Inside Gettysburg, a
group of six premier B&B’s, have created a special package for visitors of all
ages to learn more about our nation’s sixteenth president.
The package includes two night’s stay in a historic bed and
breakfast, a downtown walk following the footsteps of the President, a tour of
the National Cemetery where Lincoln delivered his most famous speech, the
Gettysburg Address, and dinner at the Dobbin House with the President himself.
Guests will personally meet the President in the receiving line before dinner
and again during dinner as the President joins each table for conversation.
The
guide for the downtown walk and the National Cemetery is Roy Frampton, a
licensed battlefield guide. On Saturday evening guests dine at the Dobbin House
with President Lincoln portrayed by nationally renowned Lincoln impersonator,
James Getty. Period musical entertainment will be by Tom Jolin.
