Park Day @ Camden Battlefield

For 29 years, the American Battlefield Trust’s Park Day event has brought volunteers of all ages to our nation’s historic sites and battlefields, readying them for a new season of tours and tourists. Join forces with volunteers from across the country to help their local parks and historic sites tackle maintenance projects both large and small — from raking leaves and hauling trash to painting signs and building trails. It's a fun and meaningful way to lend a hand, and experience the history of The Liberty Trail.

About This Park Day Event

• Meeting place: We will meet at the main parking lot for the battlefield, which is just north of the DeKalb Monument--turn right just after the big sign to access the parking lot. We will meet at 9 am.
• Planned Activities: We will pick up trash along the road and clean up the trails.
• History or Educational Activities: We will offer a guided battlefield tour for all volunteers after work is completed.
• Should I bring any tools or supplies? Wear sturdy shoes, and work gloves are recommended. We also recommend sunscreen, bug spray, and water. (There is no water source at the battlefield.)
• Is there a rain date? In the instance of inclement weather, Park Day will continue as planned.
• Please note: There are no bathroom facilities other than a porta-john. Trails are mulched, but sometimes uneven--may not be suitable for guests with limited mobility.
