Marylanders can help preserve and maintain historic Civil War sites during the Civil War Trust’s annual Park Day event April 7.

Volunteers are needed at Point Lookout State Park in St. Mary’s County to work on the Historic Civil War Fort #3 and Prison Pen area from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Needs include general maintenance of the fort and surrounding area.

Every year, community leaders, history buffs and preservationists join forces to help enhance and restore numerous locations during this nationwide event.

Additional locations in Maryland include Antietam National Battlefield, Fort Washington Park and Monocacy National Battlefield.
