Colonial Encampment in Warwick all weekend

Posted

Immerse yourself in the colonial atmosphere of the Gaspee Days Colonial Encampment and gain a feeling of what life was like in the 1700s. Throughout Gaspee Days Parade weekend and during Sunday in the Park, a collection of colonial militia will be camped out in authentic revolutionary style – no plumbing, no electricity, and no cell phones!

This Gaspee Days featurette is brought to you in collaboration with the Pawtuxet Rangers, RIM. The encampment will be in effect throughout the day, both Saturday and Sunday, June 10 and 11.

When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
