SUMMARY:Newburyport's Revolution: Through a Howling Wilderness: 1775 March to Quebec
DESCRIPTION:Newburyport’s Road to Revolution Presents: Through a Howling Wilderness: Benedict Arnold’s March to Quebec\, 1775 \n📅 Friday\, September 19\, 2025 – 7:00 p.m.📍 St. Paul’s Episcopal Church\, Newburyport\, MA \nExactly 250 years to the day after Benedict Arnold led his troops out of Newburyport\, join us for a captivating lecture by historian and author Tom Desjardin on one of the most extraordinary—yet often overlooked—episodes of the American Revolution. \nIn September 1775\, Arnold commanded eleven hundred Colonial soldiers on a daring\, top-secret mission: to march and paddle nearly 200 miles through the untamed wilderness of Maine and Quebec to seize British-held Quebec City. It was a journey marked by hypothermia\, disease\, starvation\, hurricanes\, and blizzards. Dozens perished; survivors endured eating everything from dogs to lip salve before reaching their target. Though the attack ultimately failed\, Arnold’s expedition helped pave the way for America’s eventual victory. \nIn Through a Howling Wilderness\, Desjardin tells this gripping story of endurance\, sacrifice\, and leadership before Arnold’s name became synonymous with treason. \nAbout the Speaker:Tom Desjardin holds a Ph.D. in U.S. History and is the author of multiple acclaimed books. A former archivist and historian at Gettysburg National Military Park\, he has taught at Bowdoin College\, advised film and television productions (including Gettysburg and Gods and Generals)\, and appeared on the History Channel\, A&E\, Discovery\, PBS\, and CSPAN. He is a former Commissioner of Education for Maine and director of the Maine Bureau of Parks and Lands. \nFunded\, in part\, by the Massachusetts Office of Travel & Tourism

SUMMARY:The American Revolution: A story of the War in 28 Paintings
DESCRIPTION:1776 was more than a turning point; it marked the birth of a new world order. A bold line was drawn as ordinary people made extraordinary decisions\, declaring independence from the most powerful empire on earth. Driven by youthful fire\, they believed in the promise of liberty more than they feared the cost of pursuing it.\nHistoric Beverly proudly presents The American Revolution: A story of the War in 28 Paintings\, a once-in-a-lifetime exhibition of artworks commissioned to illustrate Senator Henry Cabot Lodge Sr.’s landmark book.\nThese paintings are featured in Ken Burns’ upcoming documentary The American Revolution. The exhibit will be on display at the Cabot House from September 6\, 2025 to July 4\, 2026. Tickets are free and open to the public

SUMMARY:Benedict Arnold in Danvers
DESCRIPTION:Arnold was still on the Patriots’ side of the Revolution\, he and his troops camped in Danvers? \nOne of the most strategic and daring exploits of the patriot cause during the revolution. Part of the troops encamped in the Town of Danvers on the night of September 14\, 1775 on their way to Newburyport where they embarked for the Kennebec and their famous march through the pathless wilds of Maine successfully accomplished in spite of formidable obstacles and excessive privations. Native Americans\, specifically the Abenaki\, played a role as scouts and guides\, and there was also hope for broader support from the Canadian Indigenous populations. \nIn September 1775\, early in the American Revolutionary War\, Colonel Benedict Arnold led a force of 1\,100 Continental Army troops on an expedition from Cambridge in the Province of Massachusetts Bay to the gates of Quebec City.

SUMMARY:Explore! North Shore – Long Hill Hike
DESCRIPTION:The Explore! North Shore hiking series will get you outside and moving at some lesser explored Trustees properties across the Northeast Region\, at the right time of year to see these special places shine. These hikes will not be too strenuous\, and will offer frequent stops for learning and taking in the beauty of our special places. \nJoin us at Long Hill in Beverly for some nature\, nurture\, and learning! Immerse yourself in the wonders of nature while learning about the history and unique qualities of this beautiful property. Travel the woodland trails and stroll through the outdoor “garden rooms” that were cultivated and stewarded by the Sedgwick family until they generously donated the property to The Trustees in 1979. \nThis moderate hike will last ~2 hours and cover ~2 miles\, over wooded\, gravel\, & grass trails with moderate elevation change.\nBe sure to wear weather-appropriate clothing\, and boots or shoes that are appropriate for hiking in potentially wet and muddy spots\, or over uneven terrain. We recommend you bring your own water bottle\, snacks\, and anything else you need to be comfortable outdoors. \nAccessibility: This hike has an easy level of difficulty\, and requires hiking ~2 miles on unpaved and potentially muddy trails\, with moderate elevation gain for approximately 2 hours. \nAll children must be accompanied by an adult. This is appropriate for adventurous kids as young as 6 years old\, but is geared towards learners of all ages including adults. Adult discretion on your child’s ability to manage this activity is advised. \nCost: Member Adult: $15;Member Child: $12;\nNonmember Adult: $25;Nonmember Child: $20
