Get ready for a history lesson like no other! This presentation is all about the local connections to the war - think British and Native American loyalists making their way down the Genesee River like it's a colonial highway, and Rev War vets who settled down in the county. And let's not forget how revolutionary ideas sparked some serious change in the area over the past 250 years! Space is limited so please register at: https://calendar.libraryweb.org/event/16900466
