Day 134 - Missouri Irish Brigade


Early one morning, on the lower level of Union Station in Kansas City, Missouri, there was a delightful quartet of young musicians performing called the Stonecreek Serenaders. They were dressed in Civil War era costumes and played music that was indicative of what would have been played during that time.  Behind them was a meeting room where each month the Missouri Irish Brigade, a group of Civil War reenactors, plan ways to keep the history and lives of the original Civil War units alive.  They are always looking for memorabilia of significance to Civil War battles as this is the 150th anniversary of remembering the past.  I put $ in a banjo case for the cause.
