SUMMARY:The Importance of Connecticut to the Revolution with Mike Allen
DESCRIPTION:Connecticut played an outsized role in winning U.S. independence from the British Empire. Prominent historical figures contributed to the formation of the new country\, while Connecticut earned the nickname “the provision state” because of its supplies of food and ammunition to the Continental Army. \nMilitary actions in Danbury\, Ridgefield\, Saugatuck\, Groton\, New London\, New Haven\, Greenwich\, Norwalk\, and Fairfield were significant. \nRoger Sherman\, Israel Putnam\, Jonathan Trumbull\, Benedict Arnold\, Noah Webster\, and others played critical roles\, while other notable figures visited the state during the Revolutionary War years: George Washington\, French General Rochambeau\, John Hancock\, and more. \nThe Connecticut Compromise broke a stalemate in the Continental Congress and allowed progress to continue forming the Constitution. \nNoted storyteller and journalist Mike Allen\, former host of the popular podcast Amazing Tales About History\, will walk through the key people and events in Connecticut during our nation’s tumultuous march to independence\, 250 years ago. \nThe talk will be held on Thursday\, April 30\, at 7:00 p.m. at the Wilton Historical Society (224 Danbury Road in Wilton).\nThe event is free for Historical Society members. For non-members\, there is a $10.00 fee. \nRegistration required. \nThis event is sponsored by ASML.

SUMMARY:Spring Migration Birding at Allen's Meadow and its Community Gardens\, with Joe Bear
DESCRIPTION:Join the Norwalk River Watershed Association for this series of free spring migration bird walks led by expert birder\, conservationist\, master gardener\, and Wilton resident Joe Bear.
