Family-friendly activities throughout the weekend will include military encampments, cannon and musket-firing demonstrations, children’s musket drills, Colonial-era music, a program about Molly Pitcher and a memorial service hosted by the Sons of the American Revolution. The weekend’s featured event, the Battle of Monmouth reenactment, will take place on both days, recreating one of the largest and longest battles of the Revolutionary War. A full schedule of events is available on the New Jersey State Parks website. “The story of our nation cannot be told without reflecting on the central role our great state played in its formation,” said Environmental Protection Acting Commissioner Ed Potosnak. “This year’s reenactment takes on even greater meaning as we celebrate this milestone birthday of America. We encourage the public to come to Monmouth Battlefield this weekend to appreciate the courage and determination of the brave soldiers who fought and died to gain our freedom, as well as the liberty and prosperity that have come to define New Jersey.” “Living history events like the Battle of Monmouth reenactment transform history from words on a page into something people can truly see, hear and experience,” said John Cecil, Assistant Commissioner for State Parks, Forests & Historic Sites. “Events like this underscore the importance of preserving New Jersey’s historic sites and passing the stories that unfolded here on to future generations.” A donation of $15 per vehicle is suggested. The annual reenactment is made possible through a partnership with the Friends of Monmouth Battlefield State Park, a New Jersey State Parks Officially Recognized Friends Organization.
