The Revolution was fought and won beyond the battlefield; discover the stories of women, people of color, and spies that all helped make America! From enlisted men (or women), to spies, to everyday citizens, uncover what it meant to live true to your ideals.
Campers will immerse themselves in hands-on 18th century life, uncovering the stories of the people who helped build our nation and how they can continue to be a part of America’s unfolding story. Each week campers will dress in colonial clothing, participate in games and activities, create projects and eat a colonial-inspired snack.
What was life like for enlisted men (and women) and their families who often followed them? Was a patriot camp much different than a loyalist camp? What was the role of women and children at camp? What was camp life like for people of color? Dress in colonial clothes, learn to muster, and cook over an open campfire.
Tickets for children ages 7-11 $65 (Child Members $55) at https://www.independencemuseum.org/mini-camps/
