Revolution Along the Hudson River Programs Coming to Schuylerville and Stillwater

SARATOGA COUNTY — A pair of Revolution Along the Hudson River programs are scheduled to take place July 25 at Stillwater’s Riverfront Park and Aug. 1 at Hudson Crossing Park in Schuylerville.

The summer speaker series, Revolution on the Hudson, is an event series created and presented by America’s Turning Point, that will engage the community and honor the rich history of the region. 

The programs were announced during a recent meeting of the towns of Saratoga and Stillwater 250th American Revolution Committee. During the meeting, the committee discussed recent accomplishments and future plans for commemorative events.

America’s Turning Point Pathways through History weekend, slated for Oct. 7-8, will take place at the Stillwater Blockhouse, Saratoga Battlefield, and Schuyler House, providing visitors with a unique glimpse into the struggles and triumphs of the American Revolution in the local area.  This is part of the Town’s partnership with the Saratoga County 250th Commission, America’s Turning Point, and the Saratoga National Historical Park.

The meeting also addressed the need to identify an appropriate location for the 2027 Battles Commemorations and a smaller event planned for 2024. 

The next committee meeting is scheduled to take place Sept. 13.  For more information about the upcoming events, contact the Towns of Saratoga and Stillwater 250th American Revolution Committee through Mackenzie Macey, Historian Town of Stillwater  This email address is being protected from spambots.
