The event will include a ceremonial march on the path of the allied attacking columns, followed by a dedication of stones and a presentation of wreaths to commemorate the fallen soldiers.
On Monday, October 9th, participants will meet at 8:45 AM in the Savannah History Museum parking lot at 303 Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. The march will begin promptly at 9:00 AM and will proceed down West Boundary Street and along Louisville Road, where it will conclude at Battlefield Memorial Park.
