Purpose: To encourage Ashtabula County government leaders, community organizations and residents to create and participate in events and activities designed to publicly educate, recognize, honor, and celebrate the events and heroes of the period surrounding the American Revolution leading up to the Declaration of Independence on July 4th, 1776 and beyond. Participation involves the planning and execution of these events, as well as attendance. The program covers the celebration of any event’s 250th anniversary where said event related directly to acts of resistance to British attempts to coerce the residents in America: from the first Parliamentary Acts protested after the conclusion of the French and Indian Wars, through the armed struggle of the American War for Independence, to the ratification of the Treaty of Paris by the Continental Congress |
