Bless our Order. Grant that it may long exist that it may continue to be an instrument of great good to all. Give us willing hands and ready hearts to carry out properly its principles and objects. Keep green in our minds the memory of those who sacrificed so much that the life of the nation might be preserved, and deal with them and in all things with Your special mercy. Give us your aid in conducting the business for which we are assembled and so bless us that charity and justice, peace and harmony shall remain and flow from us. If you agree with me, say amen.

The Guard will admit all Brothers qualified to enter. [one rap, *] Eugene G. Mortorff, Commander-in-Chief The first thing I’m going to do today is have a special guest come up and say a few words to us. If I could please have Ryan Todd come up from the Department of Kansas. You can come up here if 3 you like. Ryan Todd, Department of Kansas Well, it’s a pleasure to be here today with all of my fellow Brothers here of the SUVCW. I’m from Churchill Camp #4, Lawrence, Kansas. I’m just going to speak to you about the good deeds that Camp #4 has done in the state of Kansas. I’ve been a part of the SUVCW for five years with my father, Mike Todd. And I’m also a part of the Third Kansas Light Artillery and the 9th Kansas Calvary. I’ve been participating with him for those five years too. And hope that I keep on going. For those five years with the SUVCW, we’ve been partaking with living history events in the Douglas County area of Lawrence, Kansas. With the help of my SUVCW group, I’ve put on a living history event for hometown schools, Baldwin City, Kansas, and set up a living history event for those students there. And ran around about three hundred students through that event every year and been going strong ever since. We’ve also been working with the Douglas County Boy Scouts and have been putting on for three years a living history event at the Black Jack Battlefield Nature Park and been doing that for about three years now.

  • Pioneer Founders of Indiana 2011
    "To Honor the Memory and the Work of the Pioneers of Indiana" Pioneer Founders 2011 of Indiana The Society of The Society of Indiana Pioneers is seeking to identify Indiana Pioneers to recognize and honor their efforts in building early Indiana foundations. Indiana Pioneers Each year, 15-20 counties will be selected for honoring pioneers at each annual meeting. The task of covering all 92 counties will be completed by 2016, the year in which we celebrate the centennial of the founding of the Society of Indiana Pioneers. For 2011, the counties include the following: Benton, Boone, Clark, Crawford, Dearborn, Floyd, Fulton, Hamilton, Hendricks, Henry, Lawrence, Monroe, Morgan, Ohio, Orange, Perry, Pike, St. Joseph, Tippecanoe, and Washington. Office: 140 North Senate Avenue, Indianapolis, Indiana 46204-2207 (317) 233-6588 www.indianapioneers.com [email protected] The Pioneer Founders of Indiana Project In 2010, the Society of Indiana Pioneers embarked on a project to recognize Indiana Pioneer Settlers who helped to lay the first foundations of civilized life in Indiana. The Society plans to recognize founding settlers in each county. The project's completion is designed to coincide with Indiana’s 200th anniversary of statehood in 2016. Each year, nominations are solicited from a different group of counties so that all nominations will have been received from each county by the time we reach the bicentennial celebration. All nominations of qualified individuals will be accepted. The only criterion is that they must have settled in Indiana before the cut-off dates already established for individuals to be recognized as Pioneers. Anyone may make a nomination.

  • Indiana Academic Standards Grade 1 Social Studies
    Indiana Academic Standards Grade 1 Social Studies Grade 1 Social Studies -1 - January 8, 2020 Introduction The Indiana Academic Standards for grade 1 social studies are the result of a process designed to identify, evaluate, synthesize, and create the most high-quality, rigorous standards for Indiana students. The standards are designed to ensure that all Indiana students, upon graduation, are prepared for both college and career opportunities. In alignment with Indiana’s Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) plan, the academic standards reflect the core belief that all students can achieve at a high level. What are the Indiana Academic Standards? The Indiana Academic Standards are designed to help educators, parents, students, and community members understand what students need to know and be able to do at each grade level, and within each content strand, in order to exit high school college and career ready. The academic standards should form the basis for strong Tier 1 instruction at each grade level and for each content area for all students, in alignment with Indiana’s vision for Multi-Tiered Systems of Supports (MTSS). While the standards have identified the academic content or skills that Indiana students need in order to be prepared for both college and career, they are not an exhaustive list. Students require a wide range of physical, social, and emotional support in order to be successful. This leads to a second core belief outlined in Indiana’s ESSA plan that learning requires an emphasis on the whole child. While the standards may be used as the basis for curriculum, the Indiana Academic Standards are not a curriculum.

Rockenbach M.A., University of Cincinnati, 2000 B.A., Indiana University Southeast, 1998 Committee Chair: Professor Christopher Phillips i Abstract “War Upon Our Border”: War and Society in Two Ohio Valley Communities, 1861-1865 By Stephen I. Rockenbach During the American Civil War, guerrilla raids, military operations, economic hardships, political turmoil, and racial tensions upset the status quo of communities situated along the Ohio River border. This dissertation compares the wartime experiences of two border towns – Frankfort, Kentucky and Corydon, Indiana. These communities shared a legacy of white settlement and a distinct western identity, which fostered unity and emphasized cooperation during the first year of the war. However, the exigencies of war and the eventual demise of slavery in Kentucky divided citizens living on either side of the river border, including the people of Corydon and Frankfort. The Ohio River border was a cohesive economic and social unit at the beginning of the war, even though the river served as the legal boundary for slavery.
