The Huntington Militia encamps at Old Bethpage Village Restoration next to the 18th Century home of Martin Schenck.
Come and see Men-at-Arms drilling and firing their muskets. Come and hear the cannon roar as it is fired.
Get up close and see what life was like on Long Island before and during the Revolution!
Word has just reached Long Island of a battle that has just taken place in Boston at Bunker Hill.
The trouble in Massachusetts Bay has escalated.
War has come to Boston!
Will it come here?!?
Talk to People of the PAST.
Ask them about their concerns.
See period trades demonstrated. See cooking over an open campfire. Learn about life skills in the 18th Century for men, women, and children.
Children may enlist to participate in a musket drill with practice "muskets". Adults are welcome to join in as well!
FAMILY FUN WITH SOME EDUCATION ON THE SIDE!
BE A PART OF IT ALL!
There is a fee to enter OBVR.
