10 and 11 OCT, 2009, The Col. Aquila Hall Chapter will have an information and display tent at Jerusalem Mill living history site. Last fall we gave out over 200 Betsy Ross flag to the children. This year about 1500 Revolutionary War Reenactors will be encamped at this site. This will be a great opportunity to experience camp life and see, hear and feel the cannon and muskets fire in battle.

 

10 and 11 OCT, 2009  The Friends of Jerusalem Mill, in cooperation with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources and Gunpowder Falls State Park invites you to attend our 2009 RedCoats are Coming event. This British Brigade and Continental Line nation event promises to be our best event ever.  http://www.jerusalemmill.org/index.htm
