SUMMARY:Stow Minutemen Trail March to Concord
DESCRIPTION:The Stow Minuteman Company will once again march along the 9.5 mile route taken by the Stow colonial militia in April of 1775 upon hearing the news that the British Regulars were marching on Concord. The pre-dawn Trail March muster starts at 4:15am at the Stow Lower Village Shopping Center. The music and marching begins promptly at 4:30am when the air is crisp and all is quiet (but not for long.) The Company will march in step to its own colonial fife and drum music while the sounds of musket volleys raise the alarm with the townsfolk along the way. At around 9:00am the Trail March will end at the Minuteman National Park North Bridge Visitors Center where the Company will join Concord’s Parade. This annual Stow Minutemen Company Trail March is a rain or shine event. \nPlease come out and join us in this truly unique experience to honor our community (past and present) on Patriots’ Day. Non-Company participants (children MUST be accompanied and supervised by an adult) may fall in behind the Company column for the march at their own discretion. [The Stow Minutemen do not actively organize\, supervise\, or chaperone non-Company marchers so the participation liability rests solely with the participant.] We encourage all non-Company marchers to bring water and snacks. There are three short breaks along the route with an extended breakfast break at the Rideout Playground in Concord (7:00am). Limited bus transportation may be available back to Stow after the Concord parade but please contact us if you desire to use that option. \nClick for schedule and more information. \nPhoto courtesy of Russ Campbell/Stow Minutemen
