Help Us Stop the Wilderness Walmart
Walmart is planning on building a 138,000 sq. ft. Superstore next to the Wilderness and Chancellorsville Battlefields.
Do you want to see the historical significance of both of these battlefields marred forever by more pavement, more traffic and more development that a Walmart Supercenter will bring in its wake?
