Friends of Newtown Battlefield

Who We Are --

The Friends of Newtown Battlefield is currently a committee within the corporate structure of the Chemung Valley Living History Center. 

Our Mission --

The mission of the Friends of Newtown Battlefield is to work in partnership with the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation in order to ensure the preservation of this beautiful, historically valuable resource, through effective promotion and maintenance of its natural environment and the rich history it represents, for future generations to experience, learn from, and enjoy.

How You Can Help --

You can help us by becoming a member of the Chemung Valley Living History Center and indicate your interest in the Friends group.  You don't have to be a re-enactor to be an active member.

Once you are a member, with all of the benefits that entails, you can become as active as you wish in a variety of ways.  Some of these include attending general meetings, helping to organize support and fundraising activities, grant-writing, assisting at work bees at the park, and working during events.
