Get Your Civil War Trading Cards at the Park

From the July 4th WHTM 27 ABC News.

In an attempt to get kids interested in the Civil War, Gettysburg National Military Park and other battlefields are giving away Civil War trading cards to kids when they attend programs.

Once collected, they can present them at locations and get a backpack. The article didn't mention how many you needed to get the backpack or if they had to be from one park.

Unfortunately, the program is for kids and not adults.

Gettysburg offers eight different ones and there are others at other battlefields.

Back during the centennial, I collected those gory Civil War trading cards. I'm wondering if these will be gory as well. Probably not.
