This app provides a QR Code-based audio tour of the Putnam Memorial State Park Revolutionary War Winter Encampment in Ridgefield Connecticut, the site of General Israel Putnam's 1778-79 winter encampment. Putnam Memorial State Park marks an important part of Connecticut’s history. This site housed 3,000 Revolutionary War soldiers in 1778 and 1779 and the encampment played an indispensable strategic role for the Continental Army, allowing soldiers to protect the Hudson River Valley and Long Island Sound. CRIS Radio is thrilled to bring the stories of the Revolutionary War to life and make the park’s history more accessible! In the future, more audio tours will be added to this app!
