1. Cold Harbor Battlefield Park Mechanicsville
The Battle of Cold Harbor was fought during the American Civil War near Mechanicsville, Virginia, from May 31 to June 12, 1864, with the most significant fighting occurring on June 3.

French involvement in the American Revolutionary War began in 1775, when France, a rival of the British Empire, secretly shipped supplies to the Continental Army.

Juneteenth in Hopewell, Virginia

On Saturday, June 15 the Washington Cultural Foundation, Petersburg National Battlefield and the City of Hopewell present the 148th Anniversary of Juneteenth. The Juneteenth National Freedom Celebration in America event begins at 10:00am with a Libation ceremony on the James River Waterfront in the historic City Point section of Hopewell. Activities will continue at the General Grant's Headquarters Unit of Petersburg National Battlefield until 2:00pm and will include music, lectures, artillery demonstrations, children's activities, and exhibitions.

About Juneteenth
Also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration to mark the partial end of slavery in the United States. Celebrated in over 200 cities, Juneteenth's origins are in Galveston, Texas where on June 19, 1865, slaves were informed of their freedom by Union troops including the United States Colored Troops. The commemoration, in modern times, celebrates the continued quest for freedom while also acknowledging the achievements of African Americans. Another goal of Juneteenth is to promote mutual respect among diverse cultures in our community.
If you go
The General Grant's Headquarters Unit of Petersburg National Battlefield is located at 1001 Pecan Avenue in Hopewell and is open seven days a week, every day of the year except for major holidays. The grounds are open until dark and include numerous wayside exhibits on the lawn surrounding the waterfront.
