Join MHAA and NOVA Parks on a driving tour of the Aldie, Middleburg, and Upperville Cavalry Battlefields, the second largest cavalry fight on the North American continent fought as Union and Confederate armies moved north ultimately to Gettysburg from June 17-21, 1863.  While many people often speed in their cars past many of the sites where the battles took place, take some time to slow down and explore these unique and preserved historic sites with the education staff of MHAA and NOVA Parks.  Sites that will be visited include the 1st Massachusetts Cavalry Monument, Mount Defiance, and the Goose Creek Bridge, among others.

The tour will begin at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 1 at the historic Aldie Mill, 39401 John Mosby Highway, Aldie, VA, 20105.  Due to limited parking at several sites, attendees will need to carpool with each other along the tour.
