Greetings…

Welcome to the Department of Kansas Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War web site. Please spend time here to learn more about us, and if you like what you see please join us. Membership information can be found by clicking on the Join the SUVCW link on the left hand menu.

Our purpose is to preserve the memory of the Grand Army of the Republic and the men who fought to preserve the Union during the Civil War. We do this through Department and Camp projects that include monument, grave and battlefield restorations as well as educational programs in the state of Kansas.

Our camps are located in Wichita, Lawrence, Olathe, Pleasanton and Topeka. Each camp is active in their community as well neighboring communities. For meeting times and locations for the camp nearest you, click on the camps link on the left hand menu. If a camp is not located near you join us anyway we are an active and growing department looking to expand and we need your help.
