Be A Junior Ranger
 
There are two booklets for the Junior ranger Program, one for the Fredericksburg Battlefield, that includes Chatham, and one for Chancellorsville Battlefield, that includes the Jackson Shrine. The booklets are available for $3.00 at the Eastern National bookstores at Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville. When the participant completes the booklet, a park historian will review the answers and issue a Junior Ranger badge.
Confederate artillerists on Marye's Heights  

Did You Know?
Burnside's objective in attacking Marye's Heights is unknown. His orders simply state, "Push a column of a division or more along the Plank and Telegraph roads, with a view to seizing the heights in the rear of the town."
