250 years ago Paul Revere rode through Somerville, Massachusetts by night. 250 years later we walk through Somerville, New Jersey by day.
Join a leisurely three mile walk through historic Somerville with stops for reading and discussion of the poetry and history of “Paul Revere’s Ride” and “the shot heard round the world” that 250 years ago opened the Revolutionary War.
Wear sturdy footgear and bring water.
