Camp Floyd Documentary Trailer
This is a short preview trailer for the upcoming documentary about Utah's historic Camp Floyd. The final video will be available for viewing at the Camp Floyd / Stagecoach Inn State Park and Museum in Fairfield, UT. Believing Mormons were rebelling against the laws of the United States, President James Buchanan dispatched 3,500 troops, nearly one-third of the entire U.S. Army, to suppress the rumored rebellion in Utah. This historic documentary tells the tale of Camp Floyd, the forgotten city in the desert.
Camp Floyd, Utah 1858
In 1857 2500 U.S. troops marched to Utah to squash the suspected Mormon Rebellion. In 1858 3500 troops established Camp Floyd, 30 miles south of Salt Lake City. In 1860 they were recalled at the start of Civil War.

Topaz
A visit to the site of the Topaz internment camp and new Museum in Delta ,Utah. 5/2/2015
During World War II, the United States forced U.S. citizens and legal residents to leave their homes and live in concentration camps. The reason? These citizens were of Japanese descent, and the government thought they might assist Japan during the war. One of these camps—known as Topaz—was in a windy, dusty location near Delta, Utah. Enka
Johnston's Army Adventure Camp at Camp Floyd Stagecoach Inn State Park and Museum
Johnston's Army Adventure Camp is designed for Boy Scouts age 11 and up and offers an authentic and unique hands-on adventure! Scouts travel back in time to 1858 - 1861 and enter the world of a soldier with Johnston's Army at Camp Floyd in the Utah Territory. New recruits are processed, mustered into the army and issued uniforms. As a new enlisted private, scouts will shoulder their musket, and march off to a new adventure! Leaving modern possessions behind, the call of bugles and officers' commands will replace the daily routine of 21st century life. The camp curriculum is based on the history of Johnston's Army at Camp Floyd, Utah Territory, and is designed to complete the requirements for the American Heritage Merit Badge and the National Historic Trails Award. The camp size is limited to 30 scouts and leaders. Camp fees are $25 per boy/adult, which includes all camp material, breakfast, and a Camp Floyd State Park patch. This two-day program includes a stay over night with sleeping accommodations in recreated military tents. Scouts will need to provide their own sleeping gear.
