History Thru Miniatures and Games – The Battle of Ridgefield
Thursday, May 294:00—6:00 PMLocated in the Program Room

The Historical Miniature Gaming Society is joining us again for another fun look at battles using miniatures. This time we are close to home with the Battle of Ridgefield Connecticut, April 27th, 1777. With a mix of game play and tactics, learn about the battle and the strategy used.
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.
