Volunteers Continue Tradition of Battlefield Preservation Across the U.S.

This Saturday marks the 30th annual Park Day, where volunteers across the United States will gather to maintain and preserve over 110 battlefields and military historic sites. Organized by the American Battlefield Trust, this event sees participation from various community groups, including Boy Scouts, church groups, and veterans. The initiative not only helps in the upkeep of these sites but also serves as a reminder of the historical significance of these locations. This year's event follows a recent legal victory for the Trust, which successfully challenged zoning changes that threatened Manassas National Battlefield Park.
