In this story

Two sessions

Virginia State Parks lists Campfire Coffee at Staunton River Battlefield State Park on October 17 and 18, 2026, from 11 to 11:30 a.m. at the Clover Visitor Center. The description says a ranger demonstrates Civil War soldiers’ coffee preparation using a displayed camp scene.

The same park calendar lists Ghoulish Brushstrokes painting on both dates, 4–5 p.m., at the picnic shelter.

Check directions

These are separate advertised sessions, not an all-day supervised activity or evidence that either has occurred. Use the named program location when confirming directions, arrangements and any changes with the park.

Do not confuse Staunton River Battlefield State Park with the separately named Staunton River State Park.
