Celebrate your Independence Day with this rare opportunity to visit and tour Camp San Luis Obispo, the original home of the California National Guard.
Bring the entire family and enjoy a delicious traditional pancake breakfast in troop mess hall (Bldg 839) from 0800 until 1000 hours (8-10 a.m.) prepared by the Bay-Osos Kiwanis Club.
Following chow, your marching orders are to deploy on the Heritage Walking Tour at your own pace. Inspect the historic Camp SLO Chapel and continue your reconnaissance up Sonoma Avenue to learn about each of the statues, memorials, and military vehicles displayed, including the Bataan Memorial diorama.
Please allow yourself at least an hour to peruse the Camp’s military heritage displays along the half mile self-guided walking tour loop. Printed pamphlets will describe the historic features. Informative audio recordings may also be available. So, bring your charged mobile device and headphones, cellular data roaming service required for downloads.
The proceeds, $10 for adults and $5 for children ages 6-12, will benefit the educational activities of the History Center of SLO and the California State Guard Foundation, Museum Program. Children under 6 are free.
Drivers of all vehicles entering Camp SLO are required to show current drivers license, vehicle registration and proof of insurance at the main gate entrance on Hwy 1 between San Luis Obispo and Morro Bay. Signage will direct vehicles to the parking lot adjacent to the dining facility on Calveras Avenue.
