More than 1,000 Brave Cold for Knox Fest

SCHUYLERVILLE — On Dec. 13, more than 1,000 people braved frigid temperatures to attend Knox Fest at Fort Hardy Park. The celebration honored Henry Knox’s Noble Train of Artillery, a daring winter journey that helped change the course of the American Revolution.

The event included horse-and-carriage rides, food trucks with coffee and hot cocoa, living historians, reenactors singing period songs, live musket and cannon firings, a Henry Knox reenactor, and a bonfire.

“This day was a powerful reminder that history isn’t just remembered — it’s lived, shared, and celebrated,” said Battles of Saratoga 250. “Thank you to everyone who braved the cold, volunteered, participated, and supported this unforgettable day. History is alive — and Saratoga continues to lead the way.”
