Full Moon Snow Walk & Tavern Night

Join us this night of the full Snow Moon for a candlelight walk through the woods of the Woestyne. Afterwards, we’ll make a fire in the Inn’s historic fireplace, and storytellers will share colorful tales from our area. Warm drinks will be served to fight off the night’s chill. Admission is $10 for non-members, and $5 for members.

$5.00 – $10.00

Virtual Talk: Following the Army: Soldiers and Civilians in the Revolutionary War

This virtual program is part of our Winter Speaker Series, and will be presented on Zoom. A Zoom link will be emailed to all current SCHS members before the program. Tyler Putman of the Museum of the American Revolution will present “Following the Army: Soldiers and Civilians in the Revolutionary War." Join us for an exploration of life on the home front and on campaign with the armies of the Revolutionary War. In the eighteenth century, military families sent soldiers to fight, raised children, made military supplies, and even traveled with the armies in the field. Explore the stories of the civilians who supported the military on and off the battlefield and what their work tells us about the American Revolution. Tyler’s talk will of course include the legacy and significance of SCHS’ very own Liberty Flag!
