Event Details

Game Club this week is historical miniature war games! Participants will play the Battle of Ridgefield using small miniature figures representing the British and the Continental Army. The Battle of Ridgefield is a real battle that happened during the Revolutionary War. 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.

Please pre-register. Games are facilitated by experts from HMGS Next Gen, Inc., who have great experience in running games that are fun and challenging for players. This event is for rising grades 7-12.
