Our correspondent reports from the front lines of REV FEST 250.
BY REGINA MONTRNA
Once again this year I had the opportunity to visit the Revolutionary War reenactment at Croton Point Park, this year titled REV FEST 250. I was excited to show my two grandsons what life was like for a soldier in the Continental Army facing the British Crown forces. I was happy to find George Washington’s encampment decorated with red on the tent’s upper border. The General was standing outside with his Commander-in-Chief guard.
