SUMMARY:Needham2Arlington - Bus
DESCRIPTION:250 years ago\, Needham residents helped repel British attacks on Lexington and Concord. The East Needham Militia’s 12.6-mile march to join the battle started at the Townsend Green (Nehoiden and Central Ave) and ended in Arlington by the Jason Russell House (which still stands). The fighting in Arlington was some of the heaviest of the day\, and five of Needham’s own gave their lives in the first battle to create our nation.\nFor those up who want to see the actual route but not walk it (there is a group walking the 12.6 miles)\, the bus tour may be for you! The bus and tour guide will depart from the Needham History Center & Museum at 1:30 PM. We plan to arrive at the Jason Russell House around 2:45pm – just as the walkers are arriving.\nAt our destination\, we will tour the Jason Russell House with its many musket ball strikes\, commemorate the sacrifice our fellow townspeople made\, and enjoy a packed lunch.\nRegister today at needhamhistory.org. Participants must sign a release form\, and the cost is $60.00. Tickets are limited.\nProceeds will help support the Needham History Center & Museum. \nhttps://needhamhistory.org/
