Description

 

Join the National Park Service (NPS) for the 5th Annual Park Day at Camp Nelson National Monument!

Since 1996, the American Battlefield Trust (ABT) has sponsored Park Day as an annual preservation event for Civil War and Revolutionary War sites throughout the country. Park staff and volunteers work together on much-needed maintenance and preservation projects.

We’re calling for volunteers to assist us with painting cannon carriages which will be mounted with cannon tubes and placed around the park later this year.

Participants should check-in with NPS staff at the Visitor Center. We well then proceed to the Kentucky Barn, located in the south section of the park off Loop 2 Road. NPS staff will be present at the Visitor Center to direct participants to the site.

Volunteers should wear long sleeves and pants and bring a water bottle. Participants will receive a gift courtesy of the American Battlefield Trust.
