I have found a reference for a community gathering together to greet the troops traveling through.

Niblet Bluff, LA
Aug. 27, 1861
"But on reaching Liberty - 38 miles, we found the hospitable citizens of that place had prepared a feast for the occasion of our coming which was greeted with shouts of applause..."

The Boys from Brenham, pg. 19
