Monday, December 25, 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM

Washington Crossing Historic Park

George Washington’s daring 1776 Christmas Day crossing of the Delaware River and defeat of the Hessians in Trenton is considered a turning point in the Revolutionary War. Join fellow citizens from around the country on Sunday, December 10, for a Bucks County tradition featuring several hundred reenactors clad in Continental military dress and George Washington himself. Listen as General Washington delivers an inspiring speech and then leads his troops across the river in replica Durham boats. Crossing is at 1 PM (we recommend arriving much earlier for a good view)
