Civil War Commemoration - Schedule of Events

The Town of Huntington kicked off a year-long commemoration marking the 150th anniversary of the end of the Civil War on Friday, April 17, with a special reception at the historic Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Building, which was built as a memorial to the 39 Huntingtonians who died in the war.

The event marks the beginning of a year’s worth of activities planned by a committee, chaired by Huntington Town Clerk Jo-Ann Raia, aimed at providing a comprehensive understanding of Huntington’s involvement in the Civil War.

Check back here periodically to see if more events have been added.
