we at camp moore are preparing to celebrate the 150th anniversery of the establishment of camp moore.a number of things are in the planning stage. as soon as i can get a firm date, and a line up of activities, i will post here.
on june 5,2011 camp moore will have a special day to celebrate its 150th birthday. activities will begin at 2pm.at 2:15 pm guest speaker charles elliot, professer from southeastern louisiana university will speak. then a short memorial/prayer service at 2:45pm. before and after refreshments will be available downstairs in the museum. it will be an open house type event.
Does Camp Moore have an archives??? I believe I have found some Black or at least mixed race Confederates who went through there, but because the Confederates did not list race or separate units, I am having a hard time proving "color."
