Camp Ashland, Military training facility in Ashland, United States
Camp Ashland is a military training facility in Nebraska along the Platte River that serves the Nebraska Army National Guard. The grounds contain numerous training areas, barracks, and support buildings spread across the site to accommodate different types of instruction.
The facility was established in 1906 as a shooting range and purchased by the federal government in 1916 to serve as a training site. It has remained an important military instruction location for the region ever since.
The 209th Regimental Training Institute at Camp Ashland maintains military education standards through specialized courses and leadership development programs.
Access to Camp Ashland is restricted and typically limited to active military personnel and their families. Visitors should inquire ahead of time as entry and hours can change based on ongoing training activities.
Severe flooding from Salt Creek in 2019 destroyed most of the buildings on the grounds. The extensive rebuilding effort resulted in more modern structures and improved facilities across the site.
