SUMMARY:Gettysburg Choral Society Announces Final Auditions for Landmark 10th Anniversary Season

The event will recreate the original November 19\, 1863\nceremony as closely as possible\, featuring the chorus performing two selections from the original program\naccompanied by a re-enactment Marine band in period uniforms using period instruments. Acclaimed\nactor Billy Campbell\, who portrayed Lincoln in the television docudrama Killing Lincoln\, will portray the 16th\npresident during the ceremony. The event will serve as the culmination of a four-day commemoration\ncelebrating Gettysburg’s enduring place in American history. \nThe season continues with The Gettysburg Choral Society’s 10th Anniversary Christmas Concerts on Saturday\,\nDecember 5\, at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday\, December 6\, at 3:00 p.m. at the United Lutheran Seminary Chapel in\nGettysburg. These festive performances will feature a professional brass quintet and the world premiere of a\nnew Christmas work by acclaimed composer Mark Hayes\, written especially for The Gettysburg Choral Society\nand scored for chorus\, organ\, and brass. \nThe Gettysburg Choral Society welcomes experienced singers ages 18 and older who have prior choral\nexperience\, can read music\, and demonstrate vocal proficiency. Rehearsals are held Monday evenings from\n7:00–9:00 p.m. in Gettysburg. Professional singers and students pursuing music degrees may be eligible for\nstipends. \n“Whether you’re looking for a rewarding musical challenge\, the opportunity to perform significant choral\nrepertoire\, or the chance to be part of two unforgettable events\, this is a season unlike any other\,” said Julie\nStrickland\, Executive Director of The Gettysburg Choral Society. “We encourage qualified singers to take\nadvantage of this final opportunity to join us.” \nAuditions are by appointment only.

Built in 1776\, it is the oldest building in Gettysburg\, celebrating its 250th birthday alongside the birthday of the United States of America in 2026. \nThe Dobbin House\, appearing virtually the same as it did over 200 years ago\, stands as testament to the fortitude of the American spirit as well as the quality of genuine American craftsmanship. Its native stone walls\, seven fireplaces\, and hand carved woodwork have been painstakingly restored to their original beauty and character\, with interior decor in the traditional eighteenth century manner. Many of the home’s antique furnishings are identical to those listed in the inventory of Rev. Dobbin’s estate. The china and flatware exactly match fragments which were unearthed during the re-excavation of the cellar. The servant’s period-clothing is authentic to the local area in the 18th century. \nThe Dobbin House features the Springhouse Tavern; casual dining\, the Alexander Dobbin Dining Rooms; fine dining\, the Abigail Adams ballroom; banquet dining\, the Gettystown Inn; a bed and breakfast in three historic buildings\, the Country Curiosity Store; boutique shopping and guided 4-century history tours of the house. \nAs an authentic colonial tavern\, many visitors say the allure of Dobbin House stays with them long after their visit.

SUMMARY:Saving the Dobbin House
DESCRIPTION:Saving the Dobbin House \nBy the 1970s\, the Dobbin House stood at the brink of loss—weathered\, neglected\, and facing possible demolition. In 1976\, during the nation’s Bicentennial\, one young couple and a team of experts began the process of saving it. \nThrough photographs\, stories\, and behind-the-scenes insights\, this program traces the remarkable restoration that brought the house back to life—preserving not just a building\, but a tangible link to Gettysburg’s colonial past. Longtime owner Jackie White\, who led the restoration\, will present this special closing program in the Dobbin House Dinner Series. \nThis program will take place Thursday\, August 27th at 89 Steinwehr Avenue\, Gettysburg. Dinner will be at 6 p.m. followed by the program at 7 p.m. \nThe dinner buffet will include: Tuscan salmon over rice pilaf\, chicken primavera over cavatappi pasta\, vegetable lasagna\, roasted asparagus\, roasted garlic parmesan red potatoes\, cheesecake\, chocolate mousse\, and fruit tarts. \nRegistration is required. The cost is $60 per person for dinner and the program. Program-only tickets are not available. \n\n \nNew ticketing link: https://113910.blackbaudhosting.com/113910/Saving-the-Historic-Dobbin-House
