50th Annual Lincoln Day Ceremony, a special event honoring President Abraham Lincoln and his Rockingham County and Harrisonburg connections. The event begins at 2 PM on Monday, February 12, at the Lincoln Family Cemetery, located 6 miles north of Harrisonburg on Route 42.
This tradition began in 1976 when Judge John Paul and Dr. Phil Stone sought to honor Lincoln and his local relatives. What started as an informal tribute has since become a meaningful annual event, now marking its 50th year!
