William & Mary's Revolutionary War reenacting group, the College Company, will be providing a glimpse into ordinary military life during the Revolutionary War. Throughout the day, witness Continental army infantry and British and American lights and militia practice their marching and formations. Members will also be regularly performing 18th-century dances and musical numbers, coached by members of the English Country Dancing Club. Camp followers and soldiers will also talk about what their lives were like and how they dressed.

Both British and American forces will be represented. Come see us from 10-5 on the Sunken Garden!
