SUMMARY:Townsend Celebrates America’s 250th Birthday
DESCRIPTION:Townsend has always been a community that honors its past while looking toward the future\, and now we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to celebrate both. As our nation marks America’s 250th birthday\, Townsend has been hosting a series of events that will lead up to a grand finale: a 250th Anniversary Parade and Old Home Day Celebration on Saturday\, June 20\, 2026.  This date is special because on June 20\, 1776\, Townsend voted to support our country’s independence. \nThis will be more than just a parade. It will be a hometown celebration of who we are\, where we’ve come from\, and the people who make this community strong. The parade will start from Scales Lane at 11:00 a.m.\, travel down Main Street\, and end at the Town Common\, where the Old Home Day festivities will continue with games\, local food\, and displays such as antique cars.

SUMMARY:Songs of Liberty
DESCRIPTION:A 25-minute live performance explores how music carried revolutionary ideas through taverns\, homes\, and meetinghouses across New England—often faster and with greater impact than the written word. A cast of musicians\, joined by a Massachusetts Minuteman storyteller\, will perform songs from the Revolutionary era with a contemporary folk-rock twist\, highlighting enduring themes of liberty\, resistance\, and unity. The Songs of Liberty is produced in partnership with ClockJack Productions.
