Battle of Pea Ridge Sesquicentennial Commemoration

The 150th anniversary of the battle of Pea Ridge was held March 9 – 11, 2012. 
Despite being outnumbered and outgunned, the Federal Army had great leadership and won the battle.  Pea Ridge National Military Park is the most intact Civil War battlefield in the United States, and covers 4,300 acres. The park offers hiking trails, horse trails, a guided tour road, a museum, an orientation film, and a book/gift shop.
