Henry Knox Trail 250 – Framingham
On July 4, 2026, our nation will celebrate the semiquincentennial anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Leading up to this historic birthday Revolution 250 was created. In keeping with this celebratory campaign, it is with great enthusiasm that we present the momentous commemoration of this country’s founding, Knox Trail 250. This sequenced program is designed to represent the Henry Knox Noble Train of Artillery of 1776, the catalyst for what we now recognize in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as Evacuation Day.
Join us on February 8, 2026 at The Village Hall, Framingham Green
Noble Train of Artillery
The story of Henry Knox and Evacuation Day
As a part of Massachusetts 250th, the Henry Knox Artillery Trail traces the remarkable journey that helped turned the tide of the American Revolution. From January – March 1776 Henry Knox led a daring expedition to haul 51 cannons across Massachusetts to General George Washington in Boston. This video tells the story of the determination and ingenuity, linking communities along the route and reminding us how perseverance and collaboration helped secure America’s independence.
