Park Day

Calling all Volunteers for Park Day on April 15th!

Join us for Park Day on Saturday, April 15th, and be part of an annual event sponsored by the American Battlefield Trust, that supports historic preservation through community involvement in restoration and maintenance projects.

Park Day projects at Cedar Mountain Battlefield include trail maintenance, cleaning up the cannons and battlefield signage, cleaning the trails and cemeteries of winter debris, litter removal along the battlefield frontage on General Winder Road, weeding and raking around the meeting house, helping to build terraced steps and mulching a new interpretive trail.

The spring clean-up event will be held rain or shine from 9:00 am until 12:00 pm. Volunteers should meet at the Visitor’s Center located at 9465 General Winder Road, Rapidan, Virginia 22733 at least 15 minutes early to allow us to muster the troops and develop a plan of attack for the day. Come prepared for the weather with a jacket, hat, sturdy shoes, or boots and gloves and garden tools.

A hotdog BBQ will be held at 12:00 pm and interested volunteers can also participate in a guided tour of the Cedar Mountain Battlefield with one of our knowledgeable guides.

Help us enlist the troops by registering here. Participants will receive an American Battlefield Trust water bottle, while supplies last.
