A founding goal since we organized in 2018, a monument honoring Litchfield's rich history during the Revolutionary War for American Independence was finally installed on the Center Green in town. The dedication was held on September 12, 2026 as part of America's 250th.
From October 2022 through 2026 our America 250 committee coordinated and convened activities throughout town and the NW corner.

Over the 115 years since the monument honoring the Beechers was installed, it fell into decline too close to Route 63. We had it cleaned, rebuilt & moved with the rededication in December 2024
The table stone at Andrew Adams' gravesite in West Cemetery was so worn it had become illegilble. We intalled a new stone to honor this founding father's service in the 2nd Continental Congress, as a Signer of the United States Articles of Confederation, and as a CT Chief Justice The rededication was held on June 27, 2020.
On the 7th of September in 2019, the Litchfield Patriots coordinated a wonderful living history day on the town green with reenactors and horses and fun! These historic 8 x 10 booklets were published for that event and are packed with information about Litchfield's 300 year history. Two are still available for $10.
