National Theme: Liberty's Legacy

Two hundred and fifty years ago, young boys and girls played a quiet but powerful role in the fight for American independence. Too young to hold official rank and often overlooked by history, they served as messengers, drummers, nurses, and even spies. Their courage helped sustain the patriot cause during the earliest days of the Revolution, and they demonstrated a firm commitment to the ideals of liberty. This year, our goal is to lead members in a nationwide effort to recognize the role children played during the American Revolution. As our country observes its 250th anniversary, it is important for our members to learn about this underrepresented part of our history and share it with their local communities. Members will be encouraged to explore the theme “Liberty’s Legacy” through meaningful and engaging programs that bring history to life.

The National Project will be in partnership with the National Park Service to raise $50,000 for the creation of interactive panels that recognize the contributions of youth during the American Revolution. Two interactive panels will be placed in Yorktown with the potential of expanding to other parks. In addition to this, we will look to raise $10,000 for the N.S.C.A.R. operating fund, so that the legacy of our organization continues.
