About this event
The 292-day campaign for Petersburg began with four days of intense fighting between June 15-18, 1864. Join a Park Ranger for a 20-30 minute discussion of the events leading up to and the impacts of the actions of those days. Meet the Park Ranger for this free program at the flagpole outside the Eastern Front Visitor Center. Program is subject to cancellation due to weather or other issues.
