Enriching Events At Primitive Hall
18th Century Dinner
Guests at Primitive Hall experienced a trip back in time at our festive l8th Century Candlelight Dinner. This unique evening was filled with music, dancing, and fine hearth-cooked foods with political philosopher, and future president John Adams in attendance as a passionate speaker and dinner guest. The fundraiser gave us a magical glimpse into the Pennock era.
Encampment of the Fourth Continental Light Dragoons
It was 1778 once again when this mounted Pennsylvania regiment pitched camp on the grounds of Primitive Hall in May 2008 and again in May 2009. Our visitors learned about the soldier’s life and lot as the weekend featured mounted drills and cavalry charges, as well as cooking in the field and infantry maneuvers. . . .a revealing look at our historic heritage and colonial roots.
