Recently, younger son and I attended Old Sturbridge Village’s annual Redcoats and Rebels event.
This was our second year attending and it was as much fun as last year. Even better, the weather was comfortable and we caught up with friends who were there for the first time.
If you live in the New England area, consider visiting the village. For the month of August, kids admission is free (ages 2-17). Old Sturbridge Village is the largest outdoor history museum in the Northeast.
At the end of August, our town is hosting a pirate event. Can’t wait to attend that next!

That looks so fun! I wonder if I can convince husband to go back east for a visit. We take the kids to Virginia City, which is fun in the summer. 🙂
Please convince him!!! I want to meet you and the event is really cool.
Looks fun! Loved the pics. Glad you enjoyed it, Casey!
It was a lot of fun! Especially if you like history!
Sounds like a blast, Casey! I’m thinking we might visit some of the Civil War sites next, but Old Sturbridge Village is on the list 🙂
It’s a lot of fun! I hope you find your way to OSV. One of these years, I’d like to go to Gettysburg. All the years, I lived in DC, I never made it to any Civil War sites – bad Casey!!
