Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park, in partnership with the American Battlefield Trust, will be hosting a Park Day volunteer event on April 6, 2024, dedicated to cleaning and repairing our park resources.

All members of the public are invited to join us for this day of service. Volunteers under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Volunteers are encouraged to sign up ahead of time by visiting theĀ Park Day application on Volunteer.gov.

Volunteers attending Park Day should meet at Ellwood Manor, located at 36380 Constitution Hwy, Locust Grove, VA 22508, by 9 am. After signing in, Park Day volunteers will help with battlefield clean-up and bollard painting at either Ellwood or on the Chancellorsville Battlefield. Typically, projects wrap up around noon.

We recommend that volunteers wear sturdy shoes, long pants, and long sleeve shirts. All volunteers will be given proper training and equipment. No personal equipment from home is needed.
