🫡 Under Arms: The Spring Gun Affair! 🥁⚔
F️ree and Open to the Public
It’s April 21, 1775 – Trouble is brewing in Williamsburg… The alarm has sounded — the public gunpowder has been stolen! Now’s your chance to step into history and join the ranks of the Williamsburg Independent Company.

📍 Rally on Palace Green, where new recruits (that’s YOU!) will:

  • 🗣️ Get the inside scoop on the crisis
  • 🥾 March to the Public Magazine for hands-on military drill & training
  • 🫡 Stand tall as Captain James Innes inspects the troops
  • 🏴‍☠️ Prepare to defend the Colony and reclaim what’s rightfully ours — by force if necessary!

👥 This is an interactive experience — guests should be ready to stand for up to 40 minutes and bring their revolutionary spirit!
🎯 Ages 6 to 80 welcome. It’s time to pick a side… and fall in line.
