According to a news release from Discovery Park of America, the session will be presented by Drew Gruber, who is the Executive Director of The Civil War Trails.
“While there are many points of interest relating to the Civil War in Northwest, Tennessee, there are only a small number of sites included on the trail compared to the rest of the state,” said Scott Williams, president and CEO of Discovery Park. “We hope by hosting this session, we can see Northwest Tennessee better represented. That will lead to an increase in visitors to this area to experience everything we have to offer in this region.”
Civil War Trails began in 1994 to help people follow the many paths taken during the war, and now spans six states.
“Civil War Trails not only distributes several thousand maps monthly, but our partners continually promote our sites through the cooperative nature of the program,” said Gruber. “Additionally, we ensure that visitors, whether by chance or design, find an attractive and well-maintained sign at each site.”
