250th Anniversary of the Capture of Crown Point
Sunday, May 11, 2025
Crown Point State Historic Site
Crown
Point kicks off the site's commemoration of the 250th Anniversary of
the American Revolution on Sunday, May 11, 2025! On May 11, 1775, Seth Warner led a group of
Green Mountain Boys to capture Crown Point, only three weeks after the American
Revolution began at Lexington and Concord. This early victory secured cannons and artillery for the revolutionary
cause and helped establish American control of Lake Champlain early in the
war. On Sunday, May 11, 2025, Crown
Point will mark the anniversary of this crucial victory, with an encampment of
Seth Warner's Regiment representing the Green Mountain Boys and the opening of
new exhibits in the historic site museum. The new exhibits include the interactive Revisit the Revolution kiosk,
which highlights themes, stories, and locations associated with Revolutionary
War. The day will include performances
by 18th Century musicians and a focus tour about Crown Point in the
American Revolution. Local historical
organizations will also be on site to talk about ways to commemorate the
American Revolution in the years to come.
