This morning on a cold and rainy day, members of Boy Scout Troop 1776 of Washington’s Crossing and Titusville laid a wreath commemorating General Washington’s crossing of the Delaware River on Christmas night in 1776. The wreath was placed next to a marker that is near the spot where Washington and his troops landed in New Jersey.
Scoutmaster Chris Heiss said, “Troop 1776 was founded in 1935 and has placed a wreath at this location for 88 straight years. It is a tradition that I hope continues for many more years”.
Mike is the former Chief of Hopewell Township Police and all-around great guy. MercerMe is so grateful that he often can be found around town with his camera and has his ear to the ground with all local first responder news.
