SUMMARY:Civil War Roundtable: That d__n old google eyed snapping turtle - George Gordon Meade Col. Gary Colberg
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Overview – Since Gettysburg has been covered so well by so many\, be ready to learn about General Meade before and after that historic battle in am audience participative presentation.  This unique\, interactive presentation on General George Meade was originally presented to the prestigious Civil War Round Table of DC. In this presentation we review Meade as a young man at West Point to the end of the Civil War.  What is there to the rumors that he abused his own soldiers when he lost his temper such as the “Peach Tree” incident? How was this general in combat? What about the famous “Cropsey incident” where a correspondent printed fake news in the newspaper (see Libeler of the Press photo)? What was it that he did that identified him to Lincoln as a “fighting general”? I also go into Meade and the Battle of the Crater during the Siege of Petersburg and his controversial and not as well-known decisions there. Two or three volunteers will be sought to have fun and participate as it is much more interesting. Civil War props such as Union and AOP flags\, keppie cap\, Brigadier General’s frock coat\, saber\, and shackles will also be on display. \nSpeaker: Gary was inspired to become a Civil War reenactor after researching his Great-Grandfather who served for three years in the 20th Regiment\, Wisconsin Infantry Volunteers. While serving in the Army National Guard in a unit with lineage and honors back to the 1st Minnesota\, he joined the 1st Minnesota Regiment and started his Civil War reenacting hobby. After being mobilized and deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan multiple times he retired as an Army Reserve Colonel with 37 years of service. After his military retirement he continued to serve\, working in the Pentagon and DC area as a Senior government supervisor\, working with two and three star generals\, and Deputy Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter. While working in DC he started reenacting again at the 150 th Gettysburg reenactment. He has participated in Living History and battle reenactments at Gettysburg\, Antietam\, Cedar Creek\, Bristoe Station\, Appomatttox and over 50 other battlefields. With the Civil War Impressionist Association (CWIA) he developed an impression of Major General George Meade that become in high demand in the Eastern Theater. One reason the CWIA has been so successful might be because they go beyond the normal Living History presentations\, doing historically correct vignettes to help spectators feel like they are witnessing an actual event on a battlefield. The CWIA won the prestigious Visitors Choice Honorable Mention Award in 2022 at the Jamestown\, VA Military Through the Ages reenactment. In support of DoD\, Gary custom tailored a tour of the Gettysburg battle for non-commissioned officers. In addition\, he led a tour of “the Crater” at the Petersburg National Battlefield. Gary is now retired\, lives in White Bear Lake\, Minnesota where he reenacts as a Private with the First Minnesota\, and does Living History presentations as both Generals Meade and Hancock. \nMeetings are held at the Stearns County History Museum\, 235 33rd Ave S\, St Cloud. This meeting will take place on Tuesday\, April 11th at 3:30pm (doors open at 3).\nNote change in starting time:\n3:00pm – doors open and opportunity to socialize and interact with fellow members\n3:15pm – welcome and “new features”\n3:30pm – speaker presentation\n4:45pm – adjourn\nFor more information – contact Andy Ditlevson – aditlevson@gmail.com\, 320-241-8477

SUMMARY:Civil War Roundtable: Was the Civil War about Slavery? Yes\, No\, and the Path to Yes with Dr. Mark Jaede
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Overview: Although the Civil War unquestionably led to the freeing of enslaved African Americans\, there is ongoing debate in popular culture about whether we should think of is as a war about slavery. Broadly\, there is a tendency for those who sympathize with the North to characterize it as a noble war to free slaves\, and for those more aligned with the South to call it a heroic but doomed struggle to preserve states’ rights and Southern culture. This talk will explore the shortcomings of both generalizations and consider the question of who really freed the slaves. \nSpeaker: Dr. Mark Jaede is a professor of history at St. Cloud State University \nMeetings are held at the Stearns County History Museum\, 235 33rd Ave S\, St Cloud. This meeting will take place on Tuesday\, May 9th at 3:30pm (doors open at 3). \nNote change in starting time:\n3:00pm – doors open and opportunity to socialize and interact with fellow members\n3:15pm – welcome and “new features”\n3:30pm – speaker presentation\n4:45pm – adjourn\nFor more information – contact Andy Ditlevson – aditlevson@gmail.com\, 320-241-8477

SUMMARY:Breakfast Club: "Burma-Shave: The Rhymes\, the Signs\, the Times" with Bill Vossler
DESCRIPTION:Join us for another Breakfast Club at the Stearns County History Museum! This meeting will feature Bill Vossler\, author of “Burma-Shave: The Rhymes\, the Signs\, the Times”. \nLocal writer Bill Vossler tell the story of this unique Minnesota company\, which went from rags to riches thanks to its unique roadside advertising technique. Between 1925 and 1963\, these signs were seen all across the country. \nFor thirty years\, the series of six signs posted along roadways were an icon of American life. The little jingles that touted a brushless shaving cream entertained travelers across the country. Many of us who lived during those thirty years could recite favorite jingles by rote. Then super highways and the hectic pace of modern life made them obsolete. Still\, for those of us older than thirty-five\, Burma-Shave signs are part of our history and treasured childhood memories. \nWednesday\, June 14 @ 9am

SUMMARY:Breakfast Club - Emily Sackett - "Let Us Keep Our Middle Ground Clear:" The Dakota and Ojibwe in Stearns County and Central Minnesota
DESCRIPTION:In 2022\, the Stearns History Museum was awarded a $10\,000 grant from the Minnesota Historical Society to delve into our own archives\, and those of other regional depositories\, and create a document that begins to tell the story of the Dakota and Ojibwe in what is now Stearns County. We hired Emily Sackett\, who spent nine months researching and building this document. On October 11th\, she will discuss her process\, as well as discoveries she made along the way. \nEmily Sackett is a PhD candidate studying early American History at the University of Virginia. She specializes in the history of women\, gender\, and race in colonial America. As writer and researcher\, her work has been recognized by institutions including the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture\, the Jefferson Scholars Foundation\, and Historic Jamestowne. From 2022-2023\, she served as a research specialist in Native American history for the Stearns County Historical Society.
