Recent Activities - July 4th at Washington's Crossing

     Welcome to the 4th of July festivities at Washington's Crossing, Pennsylvania.  Events were happening all over the United States to celebrate the birth of our nation, and Washington's Crossing was no exception.  Although the site wouldn't be made famous for another six months, the Crossing is a favorite spot for our unit to participate in any event.
