ChesterFest is a big hit for the camp and the community.

Come out and see us in September, 2008

We have a 10' x 10' recruiting booth at ChesterFest. This is a great chance for us to recruit new members with attendance between 4,000 & 5,000. Our booth is normally located next to the South stage where we give out over 400 recruiting coins and sell T-shirts and flags.

Annual Christmas Meeting

Our annual Christmas meeting for is held in the traditional place, the lovely home of Jim and Robin Daniels that stands high above Trent's Reach and the James River Valley east of Chester. The house sits upon the foundation of the Civil War-era Howlett House. Robin prepares a sumptuous meal for the members and guests. There is no speaker, nor is there a business meeting, just fun, fellowship, and good eating, as these photos attest.

Veterans Day Ceremonies in front of the old Chesterfield County Courthouse. We participate each year by presenting a wreath and our Chester Station Camp Color Guard represents the Chesterfield County Civil War Veterans.
