Pea Ridge National Military Park to Saturday, October 29, 2022.
On Saturday, October 29, seasonal park guide Ken Lockhart will present a special outdoor campfire program telling stories of strange experiences and sightings at Civil War battlefields. This 2-hour program will start with a power point program and will move to a campfire program where participants can share any of their strange battlefield encounters with others. Program begins at 6:30 at the park visitor center. Participants should bring lawn chairs and flashlight. In the event of inclement weather, the program will move indoors but seating will be very limited.
Pea Ridge National Military Park preserves and commemorates the March 7-8, 1862, battle that helped Union forces maintain physical and political control of the state of Missouri. Administered by the National Park Service, the 4,300-acre battlefield is located 10 miles north of Rogers, just off US Highway 62. Visit us on Facebook or at: www.nps.gov/peri
