Prince William Resolves Day
"Resolved, that no person ought to be taxed but by his own consent . . . Resolved that the town of Boston, in the Massachusetts Bay, is now suffering in the common cause of American liberty . . ." Historic Dumfries, Virginia invites you to participate in a living history event marking the 236th anniversary of the Prince William Resolves! Join re-enactors portraying such famous Virginians as William Grayson and Foushee Tebbs, as they debate the "Prince William Resolves, June 5, 1774" - amongst the first of official acts in northern Virginia against our mother country! Let your voice be heard and vote for freedom - or will you remain loyal to the King? While shouting your huzzahs and denouncements, browse our colonial toys, books, and games, refresh yourself at the on-site snack bar, or use the quill pen to sign the Resolves and proclaim your treason against our King! Free Admission and free parking! Mark your calendar for: Saturday, June 5, 2010 Performances start at: 1:00 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. Dumfries Community Center 17757 Main Street Dumfries, VA 22026
