SUMMARY:Franklin Township Walk & Roll
DESCRIPTION:Come join WARO and W3R-US on Sunday August 27th from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm in Griggstown and walk (or ride) beside General George Washington and his valet Billy Lee! Pretend as if you were there over 200 years ago marching alongside the General and Mr. Lee as they make their way through the Franklin Township along Canal Road. The road is part of the Millstone Valley Scenic Byway\, which French troops marched along in late August of 1781 on their way to the Siege of Yorktown! \n  \nPARKING ADVICE: Parking is available near the reenactor activity along the Griggstown Causeway in the D&R Canal State Park\, or in the back lot of the Griggstown Reformed Church at 1065 Canal Road\, just north of the road closure\, or in the fields across from the church (assuming the ground is dry). Parking is also available in the D&R Canal State Park near Route 518 in Rocky Hill\, about 5 miles south of where most reenactor events will occur.

SUMMARY:Walk and Roll: General Washington Rides Again on Canal Road
DESCRIPTION:Reenactors of General George Washington and his valet\, Billy Lee\, will ride on horseback along Canal Road in Franklin Township on Sunday\, August 28\, 241 years after the American and French troops passed through the Millstone Valley on their way to win American independence at the Battle of Yorktown in Virginia. \n \nCanal Road will be closed to motorized vehicles between the Griggstown Causeway and Route 518 for Franklin’s summertime “Walk and Roll” event that encourages safe walking and bicycle riding along a 5-mile stretch of the Millstone Valley National Scenic Byway. The road closure for the Walk and Roll event will run from 10 am to 4 pm\, while the reenactors are expected between noon and 3 pm. \nThe reenactors are John Koopman of Connecticut and Quinton Castle of Virginia. Both have reenacted their roles before\, and Koopman has numerous screen credits as Washington\, including a new film\, “Washington and the Pursuit of Religious Freedom\,” produced by George Washington’s Mount Vernon. The reenactors were arranged by the Millstone Valley Preservation Coalition with a grant from the National Park Service’s Washington Rochambeau National Historic Trail\, a 700-mile trail from New England to Virginia that passes over Canal Road in Franklin Township and River Road in Montgomery and Hillsborough Townships. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“For the second year in a row\, the public will; be entertained and educated about the important history of this beautiful stretch of roadway\,” said Robert von Zumbusch\, the President of the Millstone Valley Preservation Coalition\, the nonprofit sponsor of its namesake scenic byway. “It’s an opportunity to safely enjoy the beauty and history of the byway\, including its many historic homes and canal vistas.” \nThe Millstone Valley Preservation Coalition operates a Visitor Center in the old Bridgetender’s House at 2 Griggstown Causeway in Franklin Township. It’s open from 1 to 4 pm weekends May to October. On August 28 it will be open while the road is closed to cars\, from 10 to 4. During the closure Franklin Township Police will permit access by cars at reduced speed for people who live on that stretch of Canal Road. \nThe Millstone Valley National Scenic Byway is a 27-mile loop stretching from Route 27 in Kingston north to Amwell Road in Millstone Borough. It is a resource of the New Jersey and US Departments of Transportation. \n\nClick here for event article!
