Fort Bayard Days 2015 has been cancelled due to demnolition of the 1920 Veteran's Administration Hospital

With the demolition process in action, the Fort Bayard Historic Preservation Society has canceled the September 18 - 20, 2015 Fort Bayard Days.

However the Fort Bayard Museum and tours of Fort Bayard will continue throughout most of the process.

In September. there will be tours on September 19 and 26.

In October and November the museum will be open and tours available on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays.

The museum will open at 9:15 and the tours begin at 9:30.

The museum will be open following the "Wreaths Across America" ceremony on the morning of December 12 until 1pm.

For more information or to schedule a private tour, please call 575-956-3294 or 575-388-9123.

Members of the Fort Bayard Historic Preservation Society will be availble for school or organizational visits.

Although the change of the Fort Bayard landscape is emotionally difficult, it is now time to address the Preservation, Restoration, and Maintenance of Fort Bayard National Historic Landmark. With the support of southwestern New Mexico citizens and tourists who
offer assistance, Fort Bayard. like the mythological phoenix, will rise from the ashes and scars of demolition.

Please add your support as plans are created and the remainder of the site is given a new purpose.
