The British invade Haddonfield and the Skirmish begins! The British will be be challenged by Continental troops, just as they did 244 years ago — in June 1778. Redcoats on horseback will charge, muskets will be fired, and the Continentals will try to stop the redcoats before they head off to the Battle at Monmouth. There will be plenty of sidewalk space for viewing and cheering along Kings Highway and the conflict should take about 20 minutes.
