All programs are open to the public and free of charge unless otherwise stated.
The Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park does have a fee program related to Park sites. Black troopers of the 9th and 10th Cavalry regiments later fought in the American southwest as settlers continued to push the frontier westward. They were known as the Buffalo Soldiers. Several members of the 9th and 10th Horse Cavalry of Washington, D. C., dressed in the U. S. Cavalry uniform of the late 1800s, will talk about different aspects of the life of the Buffalo Soldier. There will also be an activity area where visitors can color Civil War pictures and do word puzzles.
