Title: MINI-IBC TO BE HELD APRIL 10 -- WALK THE BATTLE ROAD!
Post by: Firewall99 on April 02, 2010, 04:24:32 PM
Saturday April 10th
Starting 10AM on Lexington Green
Lexington Green is the intersection of Massachusetts Ave and Bedford St in Lexington, MA

[Posted by crak:]

I'm holding an informal outing up and down Battle Road.

Some places we'll definitely go:
Lexington Green
Paul Revere capture site
Old North Bridge
Merriam's Corner
Original Battle Road between Hartwell Tavern and the Bloody Angle,

Then depending on if we have time, there's always Fiske hill, Menotomy, Charlestown... whatever people haven't seen with Appleseed eyes and however late they feel like hanging around. 

While we're out there, I'll be answering whatever questions people have about Appleseeding, Heritage, and how we're going to run Harvard the week after.  Micro-IBC style.

Rain or shine.  Old North Bridge area might be flooded between Major Butterick's House and the bridge but we'll still see what we can of it.  Bring family, friends, enemies, whoever!

The Middlesex County Volunteer Fifes and Drums, along with several other F&D Corps, will be playing a parade at Merriam's Corner at 1pm on the 10th to be followed by a concert at the Paul Revere Capture Site at 2:30pm.

BTW, it's a great way to see period costume and hear period music from the Rev. War. MCV's costumes are among the most authentic and rival the Presidential Old Guard Fife and Drums in authenticity.
