    (CANCELLED) 2022 Winter Walk @ Putnam Memorial State Park | Redding | Connecticut | United States

    This event has been cancelled due to inclement weather. We apologize for the disappointment this may cause.

    Join us for our annual Winter Walk event!

     

    Learn about the Redding encampment of 1778-9 by joining park historian Ellery for a walking tour of the historic side’s one-mile loop. Then, experience the Revolutionary War for yourself at the reenactment battle/skirmish staged by local regiments.

     

    Fun for all ages! Free and open to the public – donations welcome to support the park. On-site parking is limited, so please consider carpooling if possible.

     

    Participants will have an opportunity to depart before the reenactment portion, which will feature black powder musket fire – safe, but noisy enough to be distressing to some children and most canine guests.
