6th Annual Park Day (American Battlefield Trust)
Join the National Park Service (NPS) for the 6th 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 completing the Camp Nelson Cannon Project. Prior to Park Day, NPS staff will place 8 new cannons along the Northern Fortification Line. On April 25, 2026, we’ll finish painting the cannon carriages and formally dedicate the new additions to the park with a short ceremony.
Volunteers should wear clothes for painting and bring a water bottle. Meet NPS staff at the Visitor Center.
If you're interested in participating, please RSVP by emailing the park at [email protected]
