On September 30 & October 1, the American Revolution Institute is hosting tours of the Kings Mountain and Cowpens battlegrounds.  The evening of September 30 there is a dinner and lecture in Spartanburg, SC ($90.00 for lecture only) and the following day a tour of the two battlefields ($165.00 for both the evening lecture and the tour).

Here is a link to a flier for the event:

My father didn't serve in WWII.  It wasn't for lack of trying.  He attempted to enlist 3 separate times.  The last time the doctor said he was too short.  He responded that he signed up again because he said he saw a poster that was recruiting short men to be pilots.  The doctor said, "Short, yes.  But this is ridiculous."  In my book, he's still a hero.

Sounds like a great trip. If I didn't already have plans for that date I'd sign up. Thanks for posting this.
