   18th Vermont donates $2,304.00 to Battlefield Preservation

The 18th Vermont recently presented the Civil War Preservation Trust with a check for $2,304.00 for battlefield preservation. The amount included a donation of $1,000.00 to be used towards the purchase of lands at the battles of the Wilderness and Chancellorsville, and $1,304.00 to be used to purchase 4 acres at Appomattox Station. Vermont troops had a prominent part at both locations.

A group of approximately fifty people attended the dedication ceremony for new monument honoring the 3rd Vermont Infantry's participation in the Battle of Dam #1 in Newport News, Virginia on Saturday, October 10, 2009.

The 18th Vermont would like to thank all of the individuals and groups that donated to the cause. Because of you this project was possible!
