Prepare for the U.S. semiquincentennial

The 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution is July 4, 2026. Prepare students with these resources from Crossroads of the American Revolution and the American Battlefield Trust.

Crossroads of the American Revolution is building a network of trails to link New Jersey’s Revolutionary War history and sites in a free downloadable app. This storyline-based, hands-free smartphone tool—TravelStorysGPS—will help educators, tourists, and residents alike explore Revolutionary New Jersey. Additionally, a coordinating website presence brings to life the stories of New Jersey citizens and their role in the war for independence. For more information visit revolutionarynj.org. 

The American Battlefield Trust website features animated maps, timelines, articles, videos, and photos to enrich lesson plans about the American Revolution. Visit battlefields.org/revolutionary-war.
