The park will conduct one camp at Chickamauga Battlefield, held June 28 – July 1 (Tuesday thru Friday). The camp will begin at 9 am and end at 1 pm, daily. Participants will begin and end each day at the Dyer House (263 Dyer Road, Chickamauga, GA).

They will also take part in other activities focused on the park’s varied history. Campers will learn the importance of battlefield preservation by participating in preservation efforts within the park!
