The Fort Sedgwick Park Project is a plan to build a replica of historic Camp Rankin/Fort Sedgwick near Julesburg. It received 501(c)3 nonprofit designation in 2014.

A section of 23 acres located on U.S. Highway 385, just off the overpass at Interstate 76, has been donated by the Town of Julesburg for use by the Fort Sedgwick Park Committee to construct Fort Sedgwick Park in the near future. The Oct. 19 event will serve as a fundraiser for the project.
