The festivities begin Friday evening and end Sunday late afternoon.
The Battle of Bound Brook (April 13, 1777) was a surprise attack by British and Hessian forces against a Continental Army outpost at Bound Brook, New Jersey, during the American Revolutionary War. The British objective of capturing the entire garrison was not met, although prisoners were taken. The U.S. commander, Major General Benjamin Lincoln, left in great haste, abandoning papers and personal effects.
Late on the evening of April 12, 1777, four thousand British and Hessian troops under the command of Lieutenant General Charles Cornwallis marched from the British stronghold of New Brunswick. All but one detachment reached positions surrounding the outpost before the battle began near daybreak the following day. During the battle, most of the 500-man garrison escaped by the unblocked route. U.S. reinforcements arrived in the afternoon, but not before the British plundered the outpost and began the return march to New Brunswick.

Apr 18-21
Commemoration of the 250th Anniversary of the Battle of Lexington & Concord
Hosted by the Massachusetts Society and New England District
Friday April 18th to Monday April 21st, 2025
The Massachusetts Society and the New England District are proud to host the 250th Celebration of the “shot heard 'round the world” — a phrase long associated with the Battles of Lexington and Concord. April 19, 1775, now commemorated as Patriots' Day, marked the beginning of the battles of the American Revolutionary War. On that day, starting in Boston, the Sons of Liberty arranged for a signal to be shown in the tallest church steeple in Boston to inform Concord of the army’s route of march. Two lanterns are seen in the in the Old North Church steeple signifying the regulars will be coming across Boston Harbor (“one if by land, two if by sea”). As Paul Revere and William Dawes rode through the surrounding towns, others set out to join in the alarms along with church bells ringing and warning shots fired. Minutemen assembled on town greens along with other militia companies, and by the time the regulars crossed Boston Harbor to Lechmere Point, word of their mission had already reached Concord.
This four-day celebration marks the 250th Anniversary of the pivotal events that set our nation on the path to independence — a path the led from Boston through Lexington and Concord. The Sons of the American Revolution invite you to join us in commemorating the heroic actions of Captain John Parker and the Lexington Minutemen, Captain Isaac Davis and the Acton Minutemen, as well as the thousands of minutemen and militia who bravely defended their homes against Crown forces on that historic April morning in 1775.
