Virginia just added more than 131 acres at Cedar Mountain to Culpeper Battlefields State Park, keeping the ground where the 1862 fighting took place in public hands. Https://www.battlefields.org/news/culpeper-battlefields-state-park-keeps-growing-trust-transfers-more-130-acres-cedar-mountain

Good to see more of that historic ground staying protected.
Good to see more land at Cedar Mountain protected and kept public.
Holding battlefield ground in public hands lines up with keeping historic sites open for folks who like to get outside and look around.
Cedar Mountain staying in public hands keeps that 1862 ground exactly where folks can walk it instead of turning it into another private patch.
Glad Virginia's preserving that ground at Cedar Mountain. More room for folks to walk the field and feel the history.
Historic ground should stay public. Good to see the battlefield preserved.
Keeping historic battlefields in public hands is the right call.
