Patriots’ Day with Drum Hill Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution: Rendezvous with Rachel Revere

It is May 2, 1775, and Rachel Revere has only heard from her beloved husband Paul once since his legendary midnight ride on the 18th of April. Still isolated from one another due to the Siege of Boston, Rachel desperately tries to create a plan to safely take her children: six-step children from Paul’s first marriage and a newborn baby of her own, from the reach of the British Regular Army in Boston.” In this program, you will help Rachel, as she carefully considers the dangers and demands of each plan. Join us on Friday, April 16, 2021, at 7:00 PM  to find out if Rachel is successful in her perilous mission to unite her family, amidst the wake of an American Revolution. Appropriate for all ages. This is a free Zoom presentation. For registration visit the Drum Hill Daughters of the American Revolution website.

Patriots’ Day, the third Monday in the Month of April commemorates the Battles of Lexington and Concord, also known as the “shots heard round the world.” Massachusetts observes Patriots’ Day with the running of the Boston Marathon. Other states observing Patriots’ Day include Maine, Wisconsin, Connecticut (2018), North Dakota (2019), and Florida. As America leads up to her 250th birthday in 2026, Drum Hill DAR is launching a Patriots’ Day Initiative. We have many fun and some solemn activities planned. We hope you will join us!
