A one day experience offering a glimpse into the life of soldiers and civilians during the American Civil War!

For over a decade, the Cedar Creek Battlefield Foundation has hosted Civil War Kid's Camp for veteran camp goers and first time recruits alike! Come experience the daily life of a Civil War soldier from enlistment, drill, medicine, camp life, and everything in between! Learn a bit about the spies in the Winchester area, play period games, learn how to cook over the fire by watching a demonstration, do laundry by hand, and more!

Camp is open to recruits ages 8 to 14. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Registration includes two take home gifts for campers to keep!

Please provide rations (lunch) and a full canteen (water bottle) for your recruit! Additional water will be provided.
