The goals of this organization are to promote, and preserve the Port Hudson Battlefield, which includes the State Historic site and private property.
We are just getting started and could use your help. Donations are not tax deductible yet.
Membership is $25.00
This is a working organization not for self promotion. There will be no banquets, parties etc. that deplete the coffers. Any event expense will be used to raise funds to fulfill our goals.
Our First event, The "Once in a Lifetime" Port Hudson Battlefield Tour" on private property, is financially supported the Baton Rouge Civil War Round Table.
We need several hundred dollars for fees to incorporate and become a 501C3 non-profit.
We appriciate any support you are willing to give, financial, or physical.
