Great Turnout for 2026 Civil War Park Day at KBA
On Saturday, April 25, 2026, the Kernstown Battlefield Association (KBA) participated in the American Battlefield Trust Civil War Park Day. About 15 great volunteers came out to beautify our battlefield and buildings. Projects included mulching our gardens, picking up brush, cleaning interpretive signs, and deep cleaning the Pritchard House and Artillery Building. Work projects continued until noon, followed by a lunch provided by the KBA.
We also had the added treat of having the 2nd Maryland Confederate Living History group present on the battlefield demonstrating drills and encampment.
A special thank you to all the great volunteers and to KBA Board member Larry Turner for organizing this year’s Park Day.
