Event Description

After three long weeks, the British and their allies abandoned their attack on Fort Schuyler/Stanwix, leaving the American forces within as the victors. However, even with the immediate threat removed, the Continental Army throughout New York was still under British threat.

Programs throughout the day will focus on what happened as the British retreated, but didn't surrender. 

A special flag ceremony at 3 pm will mark the end of the Siege.
