SUMMARY:Revolutionary Rye 250 Organizational Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Rye Historical Society invites you to join the Revolutionary Rye 250 organizational meeting. In partnership with Revolutionary Westchester 250 (RW250)\, we are planning local events leading up to the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States. \nWe are seeking participants with an interest in the Revolutionary War era to join our efforts. We have open roles for those with an interest and experience in special events\, fundraising\, marketing\, or educational outreach. Please attend the meeting to learn more. \nWhat is Revolutionary Rye 250? \nRevolutionary Rye 250 (RR250) is a committee of the Rye Historical Society\, committed to researching\, preserving\, and celebrating the unique heritage of United States Revolutionary Era History. Inspired by America 250\, the NYS 250th Commemoration Commission\, and Revolutionary Westchester 250 (RW250)\, which commemorates the 250th anniversary or semiquincentennial of the Declaration of Independence\, RR250 is focused on the enduring legacy of the American Revolution\, with a special emphasis on our local narrative. \nThe original settlement of Rye began in 1660 at Peningo Neck\, established by a group of settlers who named it after Rye in Sussex\, England\, in 1665. Rye was initially part of a larger area acquired from Native Americans by settlers from Greenwich\, Connecticut. This area encompassed what are now Rye\, Port Chester\, and parts of Harrison and Purchase. Over time\, Rye’s broader boundaries evolved\, and the surrounding areas developed into the distinct towns and villages we know today. Our steering committee reflects members from the greater Rye community\, acknowledging this shared history. \nBy engaging various stakeholders—including residents\, educators\, artists\, the business community\, students\, and policymakers—RR250 seeks to foster a connection with our collective history. This engagement aims to deepen the understanding and appreciation of the events in and around Rye\, NY\, that have shaped the broader narrative of the United States\, showcasing the evolution of core ideals such as freedom\, liberty\, and justice over time. \nRSVP is required: Please confirm your attendance by emailing Anne Gold\, Executive Director\, at anne.gold@ryehistory.org. Please remember to include your name\, address\, email\, and phone number for our records.
