Washington Visits Historic Camden

Friday, May 13, 2022 - 5:30pm to Saturday, May 14, 2022 - 4:00pm

Hear ye, hear ye! On May 13th & 14th, 2022, his excellency president George Washington will be in Camden to celebrate his historic visit of May 25th, 1791. And like his original visit, there will be a weekend full of celebration and a parade through the streets of Camden that all can attend and be a part of!
On Saturday all of Historic Camden’s campus of historic buildings and living history sites will be open to the public. President George Washington, with a delegation of over 25 mounted citizens and Revolutionary veterans, will  parade through the streets of Camden. Washington’s mounted delegation will be followed by colonial reenactors, who like Washington’s mounted delegation, have come to pay their respects to General Baron de Kalb, just as their ancestors would have on May 25, 1791 during Washington’s original visit. Learn more about the weekend activities here.
