Description

Join Fort Pulaski National Monument for our first cannon firing in over two years! At 11am, 1pm, and 3pm, park staff and volunteers in living history attire will present a special Memorial Day program. This program will feature our two reproduction Civil War cannons, which we will fire. Come learn about cannons, the Civil War, and Memorial Day -- and how all three of these things are connected.

This program may not be suitable for people or animals sensitive to loud noises.
