A Truly Magical Place



From my first visit to Gettysburg in 2002, I was entranced with its beauty, its majestic views, its 6,000 acres of battlefield.  Captivating civilian stories and accounts of thousands of brave men and women (yes, there were women!) who gave their last full measure of devotion on these fields.

There is no place like home in Gettysburg. This town has so much to offer in the way of food, history, great shopping, museums, NPS talks, antique hunting, period music, wineries and battlefields at the finger tips of every local and visitor. Gettysburg may be a small town, but we’re big on ideas, creativity and an endless amount of things to do to enhance the visitor’s experience.  I’m proud to live here and excited about sharing this precious gem with visitors and locals alike.

I’ve combined a lifetime of learning as a prior business owner of several companies as well as 20 plus years as an Event Planner.  I can’t think of a better way to combine the elements of the things that I love best – people, food & wine and events!

I hope you enjoy your tour, and if you do, pass along the good word to others. I also hope your visit to Gettysburg ignites a curiosity to learn more about this truly fascinating place. While on our tour, I invite you to create your own Gettysburg experience based on the wonderful people you will meet during your stay here and the fine food establishments that you’ll encounter.  As I always say, there’s no better way to learn about a town than to eat your way through it!

Bon Appetit!
