Friends of Sailor's Creek Battlefield Historical State Park

Friends of Sailor's Creek Battlefield Historical State Park We are a non-profit organization that actively supports Sailor's Creek Battlefield Historical State Park

We are a dedicated group who volunteers our time, services, effort and support to further enhance Sailor's Creek Battlefield Historical State Park. Our mutual mission is to preserve the cultural landscape of 1865 while interpreting the American Civil War battle and the direct impact it had locally. Our fundraising efforts have helped to purchase new park signage, interpretive displays, various par

k amenities, bulletin boards, educational materials, and much more. We help facilitate park cleanups, perform trail maintenance, and assist with park functions and operations during special events. Our group plans and supports special events such as craft shows, art exhibits, living history demonstrations and local seasonal festivals. If interested in joining or for more information, please contact Lee Wilcox, Chief Ranger, at [email protected].

*Individual membership is $10 annually, Family membership is $20 annually. Membership access includes FREE parking passes, FREE camping, and FREE cabin use at all Virginia State Parks. The ultimate benefit you can earn is a lifetime entrance pass to all Virginia State Parks along with the satisfaction of contributing to a great local resource. Thank you for your consideration and we encourage you to join us!
