Come Experience One Hour of Revolutionary Courage — Where America’s Fight for Freedom First Stirred

This Saturday at 11 AM — you are invited to join on Patriot ground and feel the Revolution beneath your feet.

Across New Jersey, Pennsylvania and cross over to New York, in the 1700s LIBERTY POLES once rose as powerful symbols of courage — proof that ordinary people were ready to stand for freedom, independence, and the future of a nation. Within that 200 square mile revolutionary region 60+ men joined forces to form the Sons of Liberty.

On September 19th, for America’s 250th, we raise one again.

Take this once-in-a-lifetime powerful hour to experience how the Revolution moved through our neighborhoods across Hunterdon, Mercer, Somerset, Morris, Raritan, and Bucks County and surrounding Pennsylvania area, all connected by the historic Old York Road. This is where the courage of everyday people helped change the course of history.

You’ll witness:

• Colonial soldiers raising the Liberty Pole
• Live colonial music
• Scouts supporting the ceremony
• Colonial time municipalities speaking the praises of Liberty
• Cake for all in camaraderie and celebration
• A tribute to the NJ & PA militia and the Continental Army who stood their ground for liberty

🪑Feel free to bring a folding chair for comfort — and cake will be served to you as part of our shared Revolutionary camaraderie.

Come for the spirit and pride.
Come for the meaning.
Come because freedom began right here.
