-This Sunday! 4/13 at 1p.m.- FREE & Open to the Public *At the Saratoga Spa State Park Administration Building in the Gideon Putnam Room* #SaratogaCounty #Historian, Lauren Roberts, will give a sneak preview of the historic event Celebrating the 250th Anniversary of the Battle of Saratoga in 2027. Local #Saratoga250 #events begin in 2025. 🌄The overlook at Grant Cottage gives a #panoramicview of the grounds of the #RevolutionaryWar, including an interpretive panel. #UlyssesSGrant often enjoyed the view from the overlook which now has a memorial in his honor. No doubt #PresidentGrant knew this very spot changed the course of America.
