Real Time Revolution | Fort Ticonderoga – Return of an Army

Daily programs will continue the REAL-TIME approach to our Revolutionary War narrative. Continental portrayals through the spring will evoke the progress of supplies and reinforcements to a beleaguered northern Army in Canada. The summer and fall fatigue projects of recreated entrenchments, soldiers’ huts, and armed vessels will show the struggle to rebuild the army and prepare for the British attack.

This event will portray the retreat of the Northern Continental Army to Ticonderoga as the Declaration of Independence was signed to Philadelphia. The maritime arrival and encampment of the Continental Army will show the nadir of this army, from which their labor would lead to a key victory in 1776.
