	Cedar Creek Battlefield Foundation
		The Cedar Creek Battlefield Foundation has been working since 1988 to create, on the land where the 1864 Battle of Cedar Creek was fought, a memorial to the courage and devotion of the men who struggled there, and an educational resource for all people interested in their American heritage.
		These include the Cedar Creek Visitor Center and the "crown jewel of the Cedar Creek Battlefield", the 135 acre tract along the banks of Cedar Creek on which are located the remains of the Federal XIX Corps Earthworks.
		The non-profit Cedar Creek Battlefield Foundation is currently raising funds to retire the remaining debt of $274,000 on this purchase and restore the Heater House.
