The American Revolution Institute is pleased to announce Revolutionary War Camp Washington’s Generals, a day camp for boys and girls about the leaders who brought the patriots to victory. During the week, campers will learn about the daily challenges of generals along with the men and women who aided and influenced them throughout the Revolutionary War. Campers will dress in period officer costumes they get to keep and enjoy hands-on activities, including sewing military sashes, practicing drill musters, writing with quill pens and ink, cooking with eighteenth-century recipes, and learning how to dance. The camp will conclude with an open house for parents and friends to see demonstrations of what campers learned during the week. $400.
