Orientation to Cowpens National Battlefield

Greetings all,

After a great week of Corps Member Training in Oracle, AZ, our team returned to South Carolina and got to meet and greet with our agency partner and NPS staff.

Team members took a tour of the Battlefield Loop and watched a video depicting the Battle of Cowpens. A day full of history was also supplemented with some local cuisine at a cafe down the road from the park. The team also was able to see areas of the park after a controlled burn that took place several days before.

In between the orientation to the park, team members set up a tarp for rain cover (see photos) and also the rest of their base camp for the season. Note: This is due to change as the team has decided a new tarp structure is needed for the site.

More training awaits the next two weeks but the team is excited and ready to put their experience to work,

Have a great day everyone!
