Battlefield Work Day

Get Connected Icon Happens On Sep 17, 2022
Get Connected Icon 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM
Expired

Description

We are seeking volunteers to help clean up the battlefield and lawn around the Pearson house. We'd like to tidy up the grounds, trim vines and clean up flower beds.
 
When the Battle of Black Jack took place, the land was clear of trees and brush. Our end goal is to bring the site back to its 1956 condition so that visitors can experience the battlefield in the same state that John Brown, Henry Clay Pate, and their men experienced it.
 
We will provide a couple of weed eaters, a chainsaw, and a mower. Feel free to bring your pruning shears, rakes, clippers, etc.
 
Please wear sturdy shoes and dress appropriately for groundskeeping work.
 
We will ask volunteers to sign a safety waiver before they are able to help.
 
Make sure to let us know if you anticipate attending so that we can provide enough lunch for volunteers!

Details

Get Connected Icon Volunteers should be between the ages of 18 and 99.
