PDA Annual Business Meeting
PDA’s annual business meeting will be held
Saturday, April 6 beginning at 1:30 p.m. with a

Activities & Social Events
Beyond the battlefield, visitors can experience
historic homes, heritage centers and learn the
story of Gettysburg through guided tours.
Gettysburg is surrounded by farmland,

opportunities to taste the fruits of those fields
and vines at farm markets, farm-to-table
dinners and wine and cider tastings. Visit
