The Cedar Valley Civil War Roundtable started in 2001 by 15 area residents who shared a common interest in the Civil War. Since that time membership has grown and includes members from several communities. 

We are interested in all areas of the Civil War, people, places, battles, events, along with the impact of the war in Iowa and the Cedar Valley.

Programs are presented by the membership or guest speakers with lively and thought-provoking discussions. 

Our interests range from specific battles to weapons, period dress, civilian and military personnel medicine, photography, innovations, politics and social concerns.

The Roundtable offers an excellent opportunity to add another dimension to your Civil War interest or specialize in a particular area in this fascinating period of history.

We invite you to join us. Membership dues are $20 annually and includes 10 issues of our newsletter.
