March through Wayland |
Annually on April 19, the Sudbury Minutemen march through Wayland, Massachusetts. This event reenacts and commemorates the mission of our forefathers who did the same on April 19, 1775, at the start of the American Revolution. At that time, Wayland was a part of Sudbury and home to one of the Sudbury Militias, the East Company.
The Sudbury Minutemen march through Wayland starting at 3:45am by the First Parish Church (Wayland Center) stopping for commemorative salutes at Grout-Heard House and North Cemetery. We end with a salute at the Olde East Company Training Field before breakfasting around 5am. Then, the company leapfrogs to Old Sudbury Center to ready for the next leg, the Sudbury March.
The Sudbury Companies welcome participants and onlookers on this most hallowed day, Patriots´ Day. Please contact us if interested. Review our history for Sudbury Militia's role on April 19, 1775.
