SUMMARY:Culpeper Minute Men: Icons of Independence
DESCRIPTION:The Culpeper Minute Men was organized in the fall of 1775in response to Governor Patrick Henry’s call for the Virginia militia to protect the capital at Williamsburg. Their uniform consisted of hunting shirts bearing the words “Liberty or Death” and a distinctive rattlesnake flag stating both “Liberty or Death” and “Don’t Tread On Me.” \n“That flag\, and the message it conveyed\, really ensured the place of the minute men in popular memory\,” said John Christiansen\, the museum’s executive director. “That phrasing will be revived over and over for the next 250 years. It was in the minds of the men who joined the reborn Culpeper Minute Men during the Civil War in what they considered to be another American Revolution. And the sons and grandsons of those Civil War veterans carried on that legacy into what would eventually become Culpeper’s National Guard company.” \nChristiansen explains that newspaper articles from the 1880s and into the early 20th century describe current members of the unit as all “direct descendants” of the original minute men. A short history and description of the flag – one of the first used by the patriot cause – is almost always included. \nCulpeper continued to host Virginia and National Reserve units after World War I\, but their identity as the “Culpeper Minute Men” eventually faded away. Older veterans created the Culpeper Minute Men Association to keep the memory alive locally\, but the minute men were becoming part of national culture. \n“America’s Bicentennial in 1976 saw an explosion of Revolutionary War commemorative items\, and the Culpeper Minute Men are featured in their fair share of plates\, postcards\, coloring books\, trading cards\, tumblers\, and more\,” said Christiansen. “The earliest example we have is a small pewter tray dated to the 1880s and made by a Culpeper jeweler\, probably for one of the Civil War veterans.” \nToday\, the Culpeper Minute Men are featured in the seals of Culpeper County and the Town of Culpeper\, and their name is invoked in local businesses and clubs. “And don’t forget the Virginia license plate design\,” says Christiansen \nThe exhibit will be on display through 2026. It is part of a series of events Culpeper County has prepared as part of the Virginia 250 commemorative programming. \n

SUMMARY:LARP Tavern Takeover
DESCRIPTION:Our biggest “secret” event is back for another year and clearly not a secret anymore. Come celebrate the start of Spring on Saturday\, March 7th with a LARP Tavern Takeover at Greenlee Tavern.\nYour spirits will be lifted by LARP bards Brady Lloyd (Radby/Maple) and Dan Joyner (Spire) playing tavern music all night and we’ll have lyric sheets available if you want to join some of the more popular tavern sing-along songs. Yes\, we reused their images in the event banner for last year because they are so amazing I could almost picture seeing them on a mead bottle!\nWe’re looking at getting a food truck and the bar will stay open until midnight. There will be lots of mead\, wine and beer and cider available for purchase\, including our four new meads for 2026: Blood Orange Spice\, Blackberry Juniper\, Wildflower\, and our Ginger Cyser (on draft). We’ll have a bonfire at dusk and a loud and rowdy LARP tavern all night.\nAll attendees must be in garb and 21+. The event formally starts at 6:00 pm but Greenlee will be open all day to the public if you want to come early.
