Franklin County Visitors Bureau Highlights 1864 Weekend

The Franklin County Visitors Bureau invites all to 1864 Weekend in Franklin County, July 19 & 20, 2019. Celebrate community and human spirit--its resiliency, faith, and courage--with a historical re-enactment of the ransoming, burning and Rebirth of Chambersburg on July 20 at 9 PM. Leading up to the light show--so realistic the town looks ablaze--is the 1864 Civil War Ball at Allison-Antrim Museum on July 19, 7 PM to 9 PM; Market Day Festival in downtown Chambersburg, 9 AM to 4 PM; and 2019 A Cappella & Unplugged Finals on July 20 at 7 PM.

The history behind the event is the July 30,1864 Confederate ransoming of Chambersburg, Pennsylvania. The demand was $100,000 in gold or $500,000 in Union currency. When the town could not pay the ransom, Chambersburg was burned. More than 2000 residents were without homes. The total loss of real estate and personal property exceeded $1.5 million in the dollars of the day. In stark contrast, today's Chambersburg thrives.

The 1864 Civil War Ball, on July 19, takes place in the German bank barn at Allison Antrim Museum in Greencastle. Everyone is welcome to attend, even those with limited dance experience. The Victorian Dance Ensemble will demonstrate the dance, place guests in the proper formation, and help them execute the dance. Tickets are $15 individually and $25 per couple. Civil War attire is welcome but not required. Register here.

More than 100 vendors fill the streets of downtown Chambersburg on Saturday, July 20, 9 AM to 4 PM. The day is filled with arts, handiworks, food, and music. At 5:30 PM, downtown Chambersburg steps back to 1864, offering Civil War walking tours, displays, and book signings. At 7 PM, the 1864 celebration continues with the final round of A Cappella & Unplugged, performed on the steps of the 11/30 Visitors Center. Bring a lawn chair and join selecting this year's champion and winner of $500.

At 9 PM, history comes to life as Jacob Hoke, an actual merchant on the square of Chambersburg in 1864, meets Confederate General "Tiger" John McCausland, who executed the order of his superior General Jubal Early to ransom Chambersburg and burn the town, if the ransom was not paid. As the story unfolds, the downtown buildings are the backdrop of the ransoming, burning, and ultimately the rebirth of the town, which courageously rose from the ashes of war.

Community College Cyber Summit ready to impress in Bayou country

From cybersecurity workshops, Digital Badges and a job fair to outdoor music and tours, the sixth annual Community College Cyber Summit (3CS) is ready to educate and entertain. This event is being hosted at Bossier Parish Community College in Bossier City, Louisiana, July 30 to Aug. 1.

3CS is the nation's only academic conference focused on cybersecurity education at community colleges. It helps raise institutions' capability maturity level while helping them develop new labs, programs, practices, program components, methods of instruction and courses. Community colleges produce a vast talent pool of future cybersecurity employees desperately needed around the world, and 3CS plays a role in that development.

"The impact that 3CS has had, and will have on the cybersecurity workforce in the area of training and networking makes this a must-attend event. We look forward to seeing partners from across the nation come together with the common goal of providing instruction to the cybersecurity workforce to protect our country's security," said Chris Rondeau, Bossier Parish Community College Professor and Program Director of Network Security.

This year's 3CS features several exciting Cybersecurity Skills Development Workshops (CSDW) such as Secure Scripting, Cybersecurity Skills Journal, Hands-on Cryptography and Intro to IBM's QRadar. Over 95 presentations, panel discussions and workshops are offered within five tracks: Evidence-Based, Instruction, Practice, Program Development and Student. Participants have a plethora of hands-on learning opportunities from experienced faculty and professionals in the field. Read latest news here.

The event also includes a Job Fair and Career Exploration that allows employers to recruit and invest in the future workforce for only $150. Academic institutions are invited to attend this to offer students support through their educational journey by way of transfer options and career pathways.

Two events offered in conjunction with 3CS cater to girls: IBM CyberDay4Girls and Girl Scout Cyber Badge. These engaging events are a gateway for girls to break gender stereotypes in the cybersecurity profession and introduce females at an early age to a variety of STEM careers.

3CS also is offering Digital Badges for the first time. Attendees, presenters and CSDW participants can earn these badges. Based on specific criteria attained, the badge is a validated credential and indicator of achievement, skill or interest viewable by employers, academic institutions and the community. A Digital Badge is a new way to display a person's training and development on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, a resume, website, blogs, in email signatures, e-portfolios and more.

A few special guests will present as keynote speakers. Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards, who worked his way from being in the Army to practicing law before becoming governor in 2016, will speak on July 30 at 6 p.m. Marci McCarthy, CEO and president of T.E.N., an information security executive networking and relationship-marketing firm, will present "Becoming a Cybersecurity Enabler: How Community Colleges Can Bridge the Diversity and Workforce Gap" on Aug. 1 at 9 a.m.

In addition to these skills and knowledge building activities, 3CS has plenty of fun options to explore Louisiana and bond with other participants. There is cornhole, trivia night, a Louisiana Street Party, Krewe of Centaur's second line sponsor reception, "Suzie Q" Red River walking tour of Shreveport history, as well as plantation, culinary and art tours.
