The Pennsylvania Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission has announced events for March and beyond. The group aims to organize and coordinate bicentennial tributes to Lincoln in Pennsylvania and coordinate those activities with the federal Lincoln Bicentennial Commission. Forthcoming events include the 2009 Civil War Institute at Gettysburg College, June 21-27, focusing on the assassination of Abraham Lincoln and the life of Mary Todd Lincoln. Gettysburg is along the Lincoln Highway in central Pennsylvania and was an important point along the route to the LHA’s founders. Also this month, well-known Lincoln impresonator James Getty will rake his one-man performance to Lancaster-area libraries.
