Join us on Saturday, April 19, 2025 for the Elm Brook Hill Tactical Demonstration. This signature event of the 250th Anniversary of April 19, 1775 will include the largest and most historically accurate living history experience of Patriot Day Celebrations. Watch over 750 British Regulars and Colonial Militia demonstrate the running tactics of the battle that took place along this deadly stretch of road at the border of Concord and Lincoln 250 years later. Preceding the tactical demonstration living historians of the Ladies Association of Revolutionary America will portray the evacuation of civilians from their homes along the battle route.

After the demonstration you will have the opportunity to get up close and talk with these amazing volunteers.
