A signature event offered by the Heritage Trail Association. Multiple tours are offered, plan on 3 hours for each tour as the bus stops briefly at all 5 historic sites for a quick side tour. The tour itself happens on the bus as we travel the area where the Continental and British Armies traveled in the winter of 1778-79. (After the first stop, guests ask for longer tours!). Experience and touch the places where George and Martha Washington lived, Where Baron Von Stuben helped create an army out of farmers. Where West Point began, where George Washington danced for hours, and where the beacon alert system and other issues were discussed and solutions were created. All these places are right here in our own backyards and make up this tour. Covering the Middlebrook Cantonment, a somewhat mild winter in between Valley Forge and Jockey Hollow, the bus travels roads used by the soldiers during this winter, much was accomplished and planned that aided in the success of the war. Middlebrook, far from the overlooked winter that historians have ignored in the past, its importance to the overall outcome of the war is now seen and the story now being told
