March Madness: Pick your favorite CSS Neuse artifact

Author: Matthew Young

March Madness is just around the corner, and with it, a fun new game from the CSS Neuse Civil War Interpretive Center! Instead of filling out a team bracket, you will fill out an artifact bracket. We have paired up some of our favorite artifacts, and YOU get to choose who moves onto the next round.

Here is how it works: You have between March 1 and March 14th to fill out your brackets and email them back to us with your name and email. Then, we will post daily match-ups of artifacts (sometimes twice daily) and YOU get to vote on Facebook for the artifact you want to move onto the next round. We will start with the Sweet 16, so there will be 16 artifacts matched up in 8 pairs. The game will run until April 3 when we will know who won it all in the NCAA Tournament AND in our bracket as well!

If, at the end of it all, YOU have the winning bracket (you picked the correct artifact), you win a FREE CSS NEUSE PRINT from our gift shop. No purchase necessary! However, you MUST fill out a bracket to win. In case of a tie, we will pick the winner at random.
