It was the culmination of the 10-day campaign that began with George Washington&#8217;s Hail Mary pass &#8211; the crossing of the Delaware. Washington had lost 90 percent of his army, but he managed to convince his men to stick around a few more weeks and at Princeton they saw the first victory over the British on a battlefield. The modest success provided the momentum that the Continental Army so desperately needed.<\/p>\n<p>Playing such a pivotal role in the war, it may surprise visitors to know that, in 2012, the National Trust for Historic Preservation named the battlefield among its 11 most endangered historic places.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reenactment Schedule (subject to change)<\/strong><br \/>\nSchedule of Selected Events<br \/>\n11:30 AM \u2013 Site Opens\/Muster of the Troops<br \/>\n11:30 AM \u2013 Battlefield Tour<br \/>\n11:45 AM \u2013 Artillery Firing Demonstration<br \/>\n12:00 AM \u2013 Understanding the Uniform &amp; Musket<br \/>\n12:15 PM \u2013 Young Patriots Training Muskets &amp; Marching<br \/>\n12:30 PM \u2013 General Washington Arrives<br \/>\n12:45 PM \u2013 Battlefield Tour<br \/>\n1:00 PM \u2013 Infantry and Artillery Demonstrations<br \/>\n2:00 PM \u2013 General Washington Answers Questions<br \/>\nRain or shine<\/p>\n<p><strong>Come Early, Stay Late<\/strong><br \/>\nWhile the battle is reenacted in the early afternoon and lasts only about an hour, a huge part of the fun is in coming early to visit the encampment to see hundreds of reenactors playing their parts, including cavalry and artillery demonstrations and women making preparations for battle.
