"Watch for Redcoats!" "Zounds! We have a Deserter!" And, of course, the "Ka-Boom!" of cannon fire.
These are only a few of the things you'll hear at An Historic Weekend in East Granby this weekend. Weather looks promising for the Revolutionary War Encampment and related activities that will be taking place all weekend.
