Camp Moore Bulletin Board

This page is used to announce upcoming events at Camp Moore that may be of interest to the general public or to individuals wishing to help at Camp Moore in some fashion. This list will be updated as conditions warrant. This page last updated on:

August 12th, 2007

Reenactment - Reenactors please check out our reenactment page and send in registration forms for the 2007 annual encampment and reenactment. Visitors will also find helpful information on this page. The reenactment will be held, as always, the weekend BEFORE Thanksgiving, on November 17th and 18th, 2007. Admission is $4.00 for adults, $2.00 for students and under 6 is free. Gates open at 9 am for viewing of the campsites and the battles will be held at 2:00 pm each day.

Brick Form Change - Please note that we have a new online brick order form that now allows a few more spaces per line and now allows 4 lines of script. This change takes place immediately. The font is 1/8 inch smaller, being 5/8 inch versus the previous 3/4 inch.
Confederate Burial Database Back Online! - After much frustration in getting this site back online, it has been accomplished by the Louisiana Division Sons of Confederate Veterans. This is a site where the names and burial sites of more than 16,000 sons of Louisiana in all States and sons of other Southern States that are buried in Louisiana are listed. If you ever visited the old site, it was a searchable database. The new format is just a massive listing in alphabetical order. Note that it takes some time to load, especially if you do not DSL or cable. The site is about 25 MB large so please stick with it. For fast access users, the wait is usually about 15-20 seconds. I am so very thankful to the SCV for allowing this on their site so that people searching for the burial sites of ancestors may have some better chance of finding them. Anyone with updated information should please send to: N. Wayne Cosby. The URL for the website is: www.lascv/burial.htm or via this link: Louisiana Confederate Burial Database . Check it out!

NEW DISPLAYS AT CAMP MOORE AND MORE COMING. Camp Moore is updating some displays with some new material. Among these are new veteran's displays and currency displays. A new music display is now in place. We have also recently purchased a set of original medical saddlebags, complete with tins for the medicine and hand blown glass bottles. This is a very unique and appropriate display for Camp Moore.

Camp Moore Camp, Sons of Confederate Veterans - Meetings are held on the second monday of every other month, beginning in January. The meeting begins at 7:00 PM and everyone attending is asked to share a dish for the potluck dinner held at 6:30 PM

Camp Moore has a vertical file of research material that is open for public research. If you have information about Camp Moore, anything about Louisiana during the War Between the States, a particular regiment or biographical material on a soldier, please consider making copies and sending to us to include in our research facilities. We are not asking for your original material, only copies! We are also interested in pictures of any type of Louisiana soldiers during the war and also seeking information on battles in Louisiana or battles in which Louisiana soldiers participated. Thank you.

If you have artifacts (War Between the States period military items, ONLY, please!) that you would be willing to put on loan to Camp Moore for display or know of someone who might, won't you please contact us and let us know. We want to have the best quality Museum that we can present. Please help us in this quest! Contact N. Wayne Cosby if you can help.

We now have Resource Packages and Lesson Plans for Teachers PRIOR to visiting Camp Moore and POST visits to Camp Moore. Call or write to us for information on how to get one or more of these informative packages! Contact N. Wayne Cosby for more information.
