1862 School of the Soldier - 4 nights/4 people

Immerse yourself in a true Civil War experience when you enroll in the "School of the Soldier."

For this four-day package, grab up to three friends or family members, leave your laptops and smart phones behind and be prepared to BECOME Civil War soldiers. You will be outfitted with jackets and camp for a night in an actual Civil War fort - called a Redoubt, built and occupied during the Civil War. You will receive tactical training, engineering education, and be schooled and drilled like a Civil War soldier.

At night, enjoy cooking and music around the campfire and stay in authentic replicas of Civil War winter huts. Just like the soldiers during the war, you will be without modern amenities such as running water – it is a harsh, rough and one-of-a-kind experience. To celebrate your accomplishments, after your day in "school," relax for three nights in a regional hotel with all the modern amenities.

This package includes:

• One night in a Civil War Fort
• Three nights at a Fredericksburg-area hotel (selected upon booking; good for two rooms for four people)
• Admission to White Oak Civil War Museum
• Admission to the Fredericksburg Area Museum and Cultural Center
