Coventry Community Events Sunday:
Duties of the Quartermaster Workshop During the Revolutionary War, the newly formed Quartermaster Department for the Colonies was in the large part responsible for supplying and furnishing our army with everything that was needed and getting it to where it needed to be before them. This monumental undertaking was occupied by Major-General Nathanael Greene from 1778-1780. This position put him under a significant amount of stress, as did the entirety of the war itself.
Join us at Spell Hall this Sunday, August 10 from 12:00-2:00 p.m. and learn all about the very important duties of the Quartermaster general, and his job in devoting America’s freedom. This workshop is geared towards Elementary and Middle School aged children. Be sure to dress comfortably, as there will be outside activities. This workshop has a capacity of 20 children, each group or child with supervision of an accompanying adult. To register, admission cost is $10 per child, accompanying adults get in with them for free. We hope to see you there!
August Food Truck Sunday Don’t drive by without stopping! Gather in the parking lot at Mr. J’s Havana Cigar Lounge from 12:00-5:00 p.m. on August 10 for Mr. J’s Food Truck Sunday. Enjoy seafood specialties from Cousins Maine Lobster, wood fired pizza of Lou Umberto’s Italian Kitchen, and Rhode Island favorite Del’s Lemonade. Join the fun as WCTK Cat Country makes a special appearance from 2:00-4:00 p.m. Hope to see you there!
