Camp re-enactors provide presentations in uniform and in character to help students understand how soldiers lived, trained and fought. Groups from elementary through high school have come to see the war in a more tangible way. Historical resources, such as the Roster of Confederate Veterans from Chatham County, North Carolina, and major historical volumes are donated by the camp to school libraries and classes. These resources help students more completely understand local history. Class Presentations Camp members bring history alive to students of all ages, by making presentations on the life of the Confederate soldier to school groups across Chatham and neighboring counties.
Students learn what it was like to serve and are able to ask their own questions about life in camp.
