On April 25, 1777, British troops landed not far from The Westport Library on Compo Beach and marched north to Danbury to burn Continental Army supplies. While the American colonial regulars and militia could not reach Danbury in time, they made a stand in Ridgefield to try and stop the British from returning to their ships.
Come and reenact this early American Revolution battle using hand-painted miniature toy soldiers and scratch-built terrain of the area. The game is hosted by experts from the Historical Miniatures Gaming Society, Next Gen Inc., which has great experience in running games that are fun and challenging for players.
