Civil War Sites Get Some Spring Cleaning

You can think of it as spring cleaning but for Civil War battlefields. All across the country and here in our region, volunteers were heading out to clean up local battlefields and historic sites on Saturday.

This was the 15th year for Park Day. It is a nationwide, hands-on preservation and cleaning event put on by the Civil War Trust, the biggest non-profit battlefield preservation organization in the U.S.

Volunteers do everything from raking leaves and hauling trash to cleaning up roadside.
