The Battle of Gloucester: Back to Life
Recently, I had the honor of joining Mayor Greg Verga, City of Gloucester, Jonathan Lane, Executive Director, Revolution 250, state and local community leaders, as well as, event organizers to share remarks at the press conference announcing the Battle of Gloucester reenactment coming to Gloucester's Stage Fort Park in 2026 on June 20th & 21st!
As I shared at the event, “Colonists and patriots here in Cape Ann wrote a different chapter in the history of America, and they set into motion a chain of events that could be said ultimately led to the development of the United States Navy.”
This reenactment will help bring that powerful story to life.
We’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on this lesser-known, but pivotal moment in the American Revolution, and in turn, to celebrate Gloucester’s enduring role in our nation’s history.
Follow along for updates as preparations for this once-in-a-lifetime event progress:
