Wednesday, September 18 9:00 am –10:00 am REGISTRATION Location: Rome Area History Museum, 305 Broad Street, Rome, GA 30161 10:00 am – 11:30 am Track A: Partnering for Preservation: Saving Zuber Cemetery Beverly Boone Meek and Ellen Watters Sullivan The Partnering for Preservation: Saving Zuber Cemetery workshop will highlight ways in which cemeteries can partner to help build the case for preserving these historical heritage sites that are normally not considered as viable connections. In this workshop, we will share information about traditional successful partnerships, i.e., preservation societies, historical commissions, churches, local governmental agencies; however, we will emphasize the unusual partnerships Zuber has delved into to support its preservation efforts. This includes a slavery past that has connected slave and slave-owner families; a local college and its student volunteers, history department and botanical research; a visual artist and professor who plans to create bronze grave markers using ancient African lost wax casting. In breakout sessions, participants will revisit partnerships specific for their communities and rethink how they might garner unexpected support for their preservation efforts and walk away with an outline of a “five-point plan” to implement. Location: Rome Area History Museum Room A Track B: At the Table or On the Menu: Revitalization & African American Places Mable Thomas, Ed Grant, Jr., and Malik R. Watkins The current hypothesis that an unintended consequence of successful revitalization of business corridors and residential communities is a homogenization of those elements that makes these places significant and attractive to visitors and residents alike can be tested in cities across Georgia.

Groom / The Post-Standard By Medal of Honor: Central New York Courage and Sacrifice 2011 marks the 150th anniversary of the Medal of Honor, the highest This year is the 150th anniversary of the creation military deco ratio n awarded by the United States government, and a distinction that has been earned by many Central New Yorkers of the Medal of Honor, the United States’ highest throughout history. award for military valor and gallantry. An act of Congress established the medal, and President Abraham Lincoln signed the act into law in December 1861. The largest number of recipients with ties to Central New York served in the Civil War, but criteria then for receiving the medal were less stringent than they are now. Dennis Connors, executive director of the Onondaga Historical Association, said many Civil War flag bearers received the medal for keeping the colors in sight during battle or picking up the colors after the former flag bearer fell. From 1920 to 1940, the Medal of Honor was presented to a number of people not engaged in combat, such as Charles Lindbergh for his trans-Atlantic flight and Richard Byrd for flying over the North Pole.
