Continental and British armies occupied Hillsborough during the Revolutionary War. Commanding figures like Horatio Gates, Nathanael Greene, and Lord General Cornwallis headquartered in the town's inns and taverns.

On Saturday, February 18, from 10am-4pm, the Alliance for Historic Hillsborough will hold its Twelfth Annual Revolutionary War Living History Day. Continental, British and militia reenactors will demonstrate camp life during the Revolutionary War and commemorate General Cornwallis’ encampment in Hillsborough in February 1781 on the grounds of the Alexander Dickson House (ca 1790), 150 E. King St., Hillsborough, NC. Events include marching drills, musket-firing demonstrations and open-flame cooking.

The Alliance's Revolutionary War Guided Tours will also be held that day, beginning and 11:00am and 1:00pm. The 60-minute tour showcases Hillsborough's revolutionary and colonial era sites, while retelling stories of the events that took place in and around the town. Tours cost $5 per person.

The David Library’s “Ten Crucial Days Staff Ride”

The David Library will offer a staff ride tour of local sites that figured prominently in the Ten Crucial Days campaign of the Revolutionary War on April 28. Cost of participating in the all-day event is $75, and includes lunch.

 A “staff ride” is a technique traditionally used in military training on battlefield sites, allowing participants to examine the role of terrain in the unfolding of battles and the more general movements of armies. The David Library’s Ten Crucial Days Staff Ride, designed and led by military historian William P. Tatum III, focuses on the events that began with General Washington’s crossing of the Delaware River on December 25, 1776, through the subsequent Battles of Trenton and Princeton. The David Library has offered this same tour five times previously to great acclaim by its participants. Enrollment is limited, so those interested should certainly book space quickly before the bus is filled.

The Staff Ride program will commence at 8am at the David Library. Following a classroom session, there will be a bus tour with stops at Washington Crossing Historic Park in Pennsylvania, the Johnson Ferry House in Washington Crossing State Park in New Jersey, Trenton Battlefield Monument, Assunpink Creek, Princeton Battlefield and Nassau Hall. A pub lunch will be provided between Trenton and Princeton. The bus will return to the David Library between 5 and 6pm.

It’s an intense and invigorating day requiring physical and mental stamina. “The reward for all the walking and standing the tour entails will be great,” promises Will Tatum. “There is no better way to grasp the realities and significance of battles and campaigns than to be on the actual ground and to imagine each scene as it actually occurred.”

To reserve a space, call or email Brian Graziano at 215-493-2233 ext. 100 or graziano@dlar.org. Payment of $75 per participant may be paid by check made out to David Library. Mail payment with participants’ contact information (mailing address, phone number, email address) to Staff Ride, DLAR, P. O. Box 748, Washington Crossing, PA 18977. The staff ride will take place rain or shine.

"No Quarter" - The 1775 Capture of Fort Ticonderoga
At Four in the Morning the on May 10th 1775 Benedict Arnold and Ethan Allen along with eighty Green Mountain Boys' rushed out of the night to take Fort Ticonderoga. One British sentry outside the gate attempted to fire at the patriot onslaught, but was foiled by wet powder in his pan. As he rushed back into the Fort itself he left the small sally port of the door open allowing for the first patriot victory of the Northern Theater. Captain Delaplace's Garrison tiny garrison was taken by surprise, unaware of the events of Lexington and Concord less than a month before. This small first victory opened a Northern campaign that would carry through the next two years, with Fort Ticonderoga at its heart. In this event we are recreating in detail the exact events of the capture of Fort Ticonderoga in 1775. Keep watching for information about the militia and British regulars on both sides with guidelines for participation.

Under the Redcoat – Colonial Williamsburg - Cancelled

Colonial Williamsburg will not present Under the Redcoat for the year 1012.
Colonial Williamsburg's Director of Music, Military & Evening Programs has sent
a letter to the UTR unit commanders apologizing for the necessity.
Colonial Williamsburg is very pleased with UTR as a program: "Since its
inception Under the Redcoat has presented quality interpretations and programs
greatly enjoyed by our guests and your continued support of this program is
greatly appreciated." "The decision for not doing the 2012 event is no
reflection on the quality of interpretation and programming presented by the
units and their individual members."
The problem is this: CW has two one-of-a-kind programs scheduled for 2012, one
eight weeks before UTR, and the other three weeks after. The timing and
resources necessary to present these special programs make it impossible to also
plan for and execute UTR. "This is not a decision we wanted to make, but one
that is logistically necessary and we hope you will be understanding of this
decision and not take it as an indication of the demise of Under the Redcoat."
As it says in the letter: UTR is not dead! In fact, CW wants UTR to come back in
2013 bigger and better: "We are committed to Under the Redcoat and planning for
its return in 2013 as a somewhat larger interpretive event."
Cheers!

Fort Ticonderoga

‘Defiance & Independence’ - The 1777 Capture of Fort Ticonderoga
Reprieved from a siege in 1776 by the onset of Winter, the twin forts Ticonderoga and Independence faced General Burgoyne’s Northern Army of British, Loyalist, and German soldiers in July, 1777. General St. Clair’s rearguard of Massachusetts and New Hampshire regulars and militia put up a vigorous defense, skirmishing in the plain around Ticonderoga. Artillery batteries built into the old French lines seemed to keep the British army at bay. Concealed on the back slope of wooded Mount Defiance, British Cannon were dragged up to the summit. By July 6th British cannon high up on mount defiance, aimed at the Pontoon bridge between the two forts, forced the withdrawal of St. Clair’s rearguard off into the New Hampshire Grants ( Vermont). In this BAR event, we re-enact the key aspects of this battle of position and maneuver around the Continental fortifications at Ticonderoga. Units outside the Brigade of the American Revolution are permitted by invitation of the fort.

Oriskany 225th

British Brigade & Continental Line Event

Oriskany 225th at Gelston Castle

Warren, NY

This site is incredible and the sponsors include many local groups including the local brewery. Our California friends will be flying in for this and it should be an incredible experience. There will be four battles and two of them (one Saturday, one Sunday) will recreate the actual Battle of Oriskany so there will be some special guidelines. Since that Battle did not include Regular Troops from either the British or American Armies, participating units will be clothed as militia. In addition to our early war uniforms which we will need for two of the battles, I am asking any who wish to participate in the Oriskany scenarios to bring appropriate Loyalist militia items such as tricorns, hunting shirts, stocking caps, etc. Those who do not have such items may participate in their RWF small clothes, but for once we are being asked to be non uniform in our appearance so the more variety, the better.

The scenario will be the fall of 1777 after the occupation of Philedelphia.  British foraging parties guided by local Loyalist civilians are active in the countryside often screened by light infantry.  Civilians whether Loyalist, Patriot or neutral are moving throughout either as refugees or in the daily course of business.  Patriot patrols, both militia and Continental are shadowing, observing and disrupting the British foraging parties.  Both forces, British and Continental shall fall within an organized command structure.  This will not be a “powder burn” or “free for all shoot em up”.  There will be orders, chains of command and the event will try to bring to bear the daily activities of the respective forces to give us an appreciation for what was more common as opposed to just focusing on the combat scenarios which were more rare.  However, participants can expect that the respective forces or a part of these forces might engage at any moment throughout the weekend.

Fort Frederick Garrison/Road March Weekend

Sutherland's Company of the 2nd Bn, 71st Foot

Captain Sutherland's Company of the 2nd Bn, 71st Foot, is planning a small Crown Forces event
the first weekend in November. The event will consist of a 12-15 mile road march, starting at Williamsport, MD, following the old C % O canal along the river there, and ending at Fort Frederick, Maryland. Following the march, the fort will be garrisoned through the weekend, and will focus on daily garrison activities, both night and day. Activities like guard duty, drill, parade, etc will be the norm. The scenario is, generically, NY City circa 1778. While I hope to keep this event on the smaller side, given the limited bunk space at the fort, any Crown units interested in participating with us, should contact me off list to coordinate.

Note that I said units, not individuals, and unit reps only should email me.

Battersea consists of 35 acres of excellent camp and tactical ground for foot, horse and artillery. Wood, straw, water, hay, a Saturday evening meal and dance are provided by the City. There will be the reenactment of the 1781 battle, battle skirmishes, period music, children's activities and games, blacksmith demonstrations and much more.

May 14 & 15 Colonial Plantation, Media, PA

The scenario: It is the spring of 1778, and amidst rumors of Howe leaving Philadelphia, the battles for resources in the local countryside is an ever present reality as foraging parties from both sides clash in small firefights over farms to feed their respective armies. In an area largely made up of Quakers, the inhabitants often find no relief from either side as they go about their normal lives. What you will see/be a part of: Located on a beautiful working farm operating as one from the 18th century Zero modern intrusions seen in a 360° view Tacticals both Saturday and Sunday through the farm Wood and Straw and flush toilets Plenty of space to encamp Firepits/cooking demonstrations encouraged Friday setup is available after 2 pm.

May 21 & 22 - Needham, MA

The BAR Invitational event scheduled for the 300th anniversary of Needham, Massachusetts on May. 21-22 isn't a national event, nor a British Brigade event per se, but it will be a large regional one involving all Crown Forces units that are part of the Boston Garrison, and all American units that do Battle Road, plus many other units. Your unit is invited to participate at an event to be held at Ridgehill Reservation, in Needham, Massachusetts, on Saturday and Sunday May 21st and 22nd as part of the celebration of the 300th anniversary of the Town of Needham. This event is a BAR Invitational, which means that everyone participating must be specifically invited. This is true for both Crown and Rebel Forces. Arrival and set up will be possible from Friday morning on, but everything must be done before the event site opens to the public at 10 am, Saturday morning, May 21st. Normal camp amenities will be provided to include water easily accessible close to each camp, ample firewood, straw for tents, and plenty of portable latrines, to include the larger ones beloved of the ladies. There will be a good number of high quality sutlers present. Parking will be about 300 yards away, through the woods, and entirely out of site...SO... the Needham Police WILL patrol the parking area, to include at night! There will be a formal, ball Saturday night in Needham, with live, 18th century music, and a dance instructor/caller, with open bar, etc. This is discussed later in this invitation. There will be three, battles. One Saturday afternoon and one Sunday afternoon will be staged for the public. The third, which will be a war game, will be held on Sunday morning and is optional. The site has been walked, looked at, discussed, and all planning done on the ground by the commanders, and other key officers from Crown and American forces . Essentially, Saturday will be 'Redcoats Rule', and Sunday will be 'Revenge of the Rebels'. Brad Chetwynd, 2nd Massachusetts Regiment, is commanding the American forces, with Henry Cooke, 10th Massachusetts Light Infantry, as his second in command. Ken Siegel will command the Crown forces as a Brigadier General in America, with Paul O'Shaughnessy, 10th Regiment of Foot, as his second in command. This event will be somewhat unique in that the public will not get to see the Crown Forces until they attack Saturday afternoon. To that end, the Crown camp will NOT be open to the public! It will actually be hidden. That doesn't mean it will be a modern, bring your Coleman lanterns, laptop thing at all, just that due to the scenario the Crown camp never figures in the 'show' and whereas the American camp will be a well set up, fortified, garrison encampment with all the 'bells an whistles' of a camp in place for a month, the Crown camp will be an authentic marching camp, set up so that the Crown Forces participants have a place to sleep, cook, eat, and relax when off duty. Modern camping will be available in the parking area. A separate area will be set aside and a porta-john will be provided since this is several hundred yards from the main, encampment area. This area will be suitable for campers, trailers, and RV's.

Past Events

2010

FEBRUARY 27, 2010--SAINT DAVID'S DAY DINNER

March 13 – 14 Battle of Guilford Courthouse – Greensboro, NC

If any interest, please advise me so I can register us. Late war uniform only. Please only advise me if you are 100% certain to make this. In the past we have had complaints and ruffled feathers all around about events that we were not registered for. The officers went to a great deal of trouble to get us in, and then hardly anyone showed up.

April 17 – 19 Battle Road Lincoln, MA

Hosted by the 10^th Foot, Ken has graciously offered to host up to 4 members at his house, but I think Casa Siegel is now full to capacity. This is a “regional” one day event that we have had great fun at in the past and it’s a great event for Light Company and regional New England. Bring enough ammo for two battles. You will need only your cartridge box for the first one as they are supplying the ammo, but you will need your own for the second battle.

April 24 – 25 Siege of San Juan, PR

I will get more info on this shortly and send it along.

April 24 – 25 BAR School of the Soldier, Vails Gate, NY

May 8 – 9 Siege of Charleston, Fort Moultrie SC

May 15 – 16 RWFA Garrison & Drill, Army Historic Education Center, Carlisle, PA

In conjunction with the AHEC living history event in May, Army Heritage Days has been expanded to two days (15-16 May) which last year attracted 11,000 visitors, we will look at this as a good, low-key recruiting event for both the Colonel's and Grenadier Companies.

May 23 – 24 British Brigade Academy, Fort Montgomery, NY

This will be a weekend of instruction from the British Brigade designed for officers and NCOs and I will be attending this year. If anyone else has an interest, please let me know. I strongly recommend it. You will need to either camp out or do the motel thing.

June 5 -6 Gelston Castle, Warren, NY

We will be making this a “regional” event this year in support of a recruiting effort for the Light Company.

June 12 – 13 Washington Crossing, PA

CANCELLED

June 19 – 20 Battle of Monmouth, Freehold, NJ

Sponsored by 2^nd New Jersey and 43^rd Regt. Of Foot, there will not be an actual representation of the historic battle but a representative clash of arms this year.

July 10 – 11 Wyoming Valley Massacre, Scranton, PA

A wilderness type site with 600 acres of field and forest with easy access from I80 and I87. July is hot but there is much shade here. For more info: www.battleofwyoming.org

July 10 – 11 Battle of Hubbardton, VT

July 17 -18 BAR event, Stony Point, NY

We will need to pre register for this, so if there is any interest please let me know in a timely manner. Remember Ft. George in Canada is two weekends after, we need full regimental support for that one.

July 31 – Aug 1 Fort George, Niagara on the Lake, Ontario, Canada

This will be one of the main regimental events for 2010. There will be a combined barrage and night assault on the fort with ground charges and hand grenades!

Fort George is an 1812 site with an outlying lunette which is accessible through an underground tunnel. I believe this is sponsored by Parks Canada. You will need passports to gain access to Canada and re entry into US, so get on it now because that can be a fairly lengthy process. It won’t hurt to have one as you will certainly need it if we make any future excursions to the UK. Can’t go!

If you don’t have a passport, you can’t go!

Sept 25 – 26 “1777 Campaign,” Brandywine Creek State Park, Wilmington, DE BB/CL National Event

This will most probably be the second regimental event for 2010. It is getting the full support of the BB/CL and it is unfolding as a very large event with evening amenities being planned as well as full battles on both days.

Brigadier Vivian will be there to give encouragement to his lads in red.

Oct 2 Battle of Germantown, Germantown, PA

Fighting from within the Chew Mansion is always intense, this one day event features two battles at noon and 3:00pm.

Oct 16 – 17 Richardson’s Tavern, Millis, MA

This looks like a very nice, medium sized event run by the 10th Rgt and 2nd Mass. Ken, who is on the planning committee will be providing us with more details as they develop and has opened his house to up to 4 members as he is only a half hour away. Ken is

Oct 23 – 24 Mount Harmon Plantation, Earlville, MD

A lovely location just an hour south of Philadelphia on a peninsula surrounded by water, this site may be the site of larger events in the future.

Nov 6 – 7 Hope Lodge, Fort Washington, PA

Always a local favorite, the reenactment has been taken over by the Friends group which has stepped in to pick up the slack left by the collapse of the PHMC. Two battles one each day.

Dec 4-5 British Nightwatch, St. Augustine, FL
