Civil War Museum opens in Kenosha

I was reading the Fond du Lac Reporter this morning (Travel, B7, at the end of the Sports section), and I came across an almost full page article on the opening of a new Smithsonian-affiliated Civil War Museum in Kenosha, WI. I heard about this museum during the summer when I was reading the book that goes along with Ken Burns' Civil War documentary.

I think I need to go to this museum in preparation for WLA's Fall Choral Concert "His Truth is Marching On – The Civil War in Story and Song". The concert will be performed at 7 PM on Sunday, October 19, 2008 in the Winnebago Lutheran Academy gym by the WLA choirs and will feature narrations and first person quotes by Mr. David Wege.
