Pea Ridge Sesquicentennial Commemoration
Pea Ridge National Military Park Foundation is partnering with Pea Ridge National Military Park to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Pea Ridge on March 9-11, 2012. This historic event will kick-off on March 9th on the Bentonville Downtown Square with a cavalry re-enactment on the actual site where the Union and Confederate Armies met in March 1862 before the Battle of Pea Ridge. That evening, Bobby Horton will perform in concert "Songs and Stories of the Civil War" at the Bentonville Shewmaker Center. All other events will take place March 10th and 11th at Pea Ridge National Military Park and include soldier encampments, battlefield talks and guided hikes, artillery and rifle firing demonstrations, a memorial service Saturday afternoon and a battlefield luminary Saturday evening. The kick-off is free to the public, but the concert is a ticketed event. All park events will cost the regular park admission of $5 per adult or $10 per vehicle.
