Volunteers Needed for Patriot’s Day Colonial Fair

Help
the City re-live Paul Revere's historic ride from Boston through Somerville and
onto Lexington and Concord. Volunteers are needed for the City's annual
Patriots Day Colonial Fair at Foss Park on Monday, April 21.

Volunteers will help residents learn about life in the late 1700s by leading
Colonial-era games, serving refreshments, and distributing and stamping
Colonial Passports. To set the scene, all volunteers will dress in Colonial-era
clothing (we have clothing to lend or tips for what to wear!). We'll also teach
you games to lead including hop scotch, cat's cradle, hoop rolling and ring toss.

The events are sponsored by the City's Historic Preservation Commission,
Historic Somerville and the Somerville Museum, and will be held rain or shine
on Monday, April 21 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. at Foss Park.
