230th Battle of Monmouth!! June 21 & 22

If you can find the time I highly suggest that you attend one of the two days that the Battle of Monmouth will be commemorated.
This year is the 230th anniversary of the battle and re-enactors love key years like this. They go all out. This year promises to be the largest Revolutionary War re-enactment in the country!
There will be 67 British and American regiments attending which will include reg infantry, militia, artillery, mounted infantry/cavalry, and loyalists.

The event is fun for all ages! You can:
-tour the park's museum and learn about the battle.
-watch a talk on Molly Pitcher
-children can march around with toy muskets and drill like a soldier.
-Tour the British and American camps
-Shop at the sutlers selling period items
-watch a talk about artillery during the period and see a demonstration.
-watch the battle!!
