MNPS Field Trip: Civil War Fort Site: Fort Chaplin (91st in Series)

We will return to Fort Chaplin. Always a very special trip in May. We see wildflowers which only appear in May and each year at Fort Chaplin we seem to see more than the year before.

Leaders: Mary Pat Rowan and Lou Aronica

Directions: Meet on East Capital Street at 41st Street NE. Traveling east on Benning Road from Minnesota Ave NE go all the way to where Benning curves to the right and intersects with East Capital Street. Take a right on East Capital and head west a few blocks until you get to 41st Street NE on your right. Take a right and park on 41st or on East Capital if you can.

Bring: Water and lunch.

Note: Easy to moderate walk. A light drizzle is fine but cancelled if pouring rain.
