 The first part is an immersive dinner experience to be held at
Lincoln Christian University-Henderson Hall at 6 p.m. on the Friday
the 12th.
At this dinner, you will be brought into the life and times of Mr.
Lincoln and the American People during the Civil War beginning with
a recitation of the iconic Gettysburg address.
Afterward, Mr. Lincoln and Mary Todd will be available for photos,
and your knowledge of Abraham Lincoln, Lincoln the town, Illinois,
the Civil War, and politics will be put to the test for a prize.
Speaking of prizes, there will also be a silent auction with items
generously donated by local small businesses.
 The dinner includes two kinds of pasta, salad, roasted vegetables
and garlic bread. Following this, to celebrate Lincoln's Birthday in
the most traditional fashion, there will be cake.

Wilkes Booth!
