Field trips and site visits to the monument are offered year round, but come prepared for the weather. Summers can be hot and muggy. Winters can be cold and windy. Please submit your request 2 weeks before desired program date. Requests made less than 2 weeks of desired date will be considered but may not be able to be accommodated due to limited staffing. National Park Service staff recommend booking a programs at least 4 weeks before the desired program date in the month of May due to commemorative events. Any group (school, religious, family reunion, etc.) with 15 people or more visiting the national monument and wanting a ranger talk should book a program. Park Rangers provide interactive and informative experiences for students and groups using their historical knowledge. They encourage active participation, critical thinking, and analyzing connections between historical events. Field trips to the national monument can include several sites around Anniston, Alabama.
