The SCV Sesquicentennial Commission was formed to begin planning the SCV’s involvement in the 150th anniversary of the Cause of Southern Independence. The primary goals of the commission are fourfold:
- To promote the observance of the activities leading up to, during, and following the War Between the States;
- To cooperate with and assist national, state, and local organizations with programs and activities suitable for the commemoration;
- To ensure that any observance of the sesquicentennial of the War Between the States appropriately recognizes the experiences and points of view of the citizens and soldiers of the Confederate States of America; and
- To develop and provide assistance for the development of programs, projects, and activities commemorating the 150th anniversary of the War Between the States that have lasting educational value.
