5:00 PM – 8:00 PM: The PA Army Nation Guard joins the 11/30 Visitors Center bringing their rock climbing wall Downtown for all those adventurous individuals to endure!

Just before 9:00 PM: As the sun sets, the history of the 1864 Ransoming, Burning & Rebirth of Chambersburg
takes the night’s center stage as lights and atmospheric affects so real that bystanders will think they were transported back to 1864!
