245th Anniversary of the
Retreat From Fort Lee
November 20th - 21st
Please join us for the 245th Anniversary of the Retreat from Fort Lee this November 20th! Fort Lee will be manned by the Continentals throughout the day on Saturday the 20th, up until the British attack and chaos ensues during the battle over Fort Lee. Through the whole day, soldiers will work fortifying the defenses and making last-minute barricades to the fort.
On Sunday morning, the retreat march to Historic New Bridge Landing takes place with the Continentals leading with wagons, wounded, and ragged men while closely pursued by the British and their allies. Once New Bridge is reached, a small skirmish for the bridge occurs, leaving the British to make camp on one side while the retreating rebels make camp on the other. Another tactical demonstration will occur for the bridge as men of the “flying camp” try to fend off the attackers as their comrades continue to retreat to safety.
