What started out as a small event years ago has steadily grown in attendance and public interest anticipating the 250th anniversary in January 2027. So far we’ve had clear weather, but somewhat cold. Good, flat and clear terrain with plenty of artillery and firing. Alex can host some brave Fusiliers who want to travel north at his family’s house in NJ. Additionally, for those who decide to travel north on Saturday, the plan is to stop in Philadelphia to visit the Museum of the American Revolution.

Princeton battle is on Sunday starting at 0800 and ends after the battle reenactment at 1130. There is a wreath laying ceremony at 1200 with members of the American and British military attending. Attendance for the 23rd is optional. We plan on meeting at the Patriot’s Landing tavern for lunch at 1200 before heading home.
