On April 25, 2009, the Ogeechee Rifles Camp # 941 and a number of spectators gathered on the courthouse lawn in Statesboro, Georgia to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the creation of the Confederate Statue on the lawn.

The statue was sponsored by the Statesboro Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy and was created by the McNeel Marble Company at a cost between $2,000 and $4,200. The statue was dedicated on April 16, 1909. Speakers at the event included Col. Enoch Giles, Col. R. Lee Moore, Major J.S. Cone and Jacob Rocker.

The celebration included a speech by Deke Cox, Commander of the Ogeechee Rifles Camp #941 and a 21-gun salute, as well as the placing of Confederate Battle Flags on the statue.

On November 9, 2012, the Ogeechee Rifles Camp #941 had a re-dedication ceremony on the Courthouse Square in Bulloch County for the Confederate Memorial Statue. The statue has been refurbished and now has a fence to go along with it as part of the monument. Cannon balls will soon be added to each corner of the statue and it will be landscaped to have lilies and roses year round.

How many a glorious name for us
How many a story of fame for us
They left; Would it not be a blame for us
If their memories part
From our land and our heart
And a wrong to them, and a shame for us.
