James and Ann Whitall House, Red Bank Battlefield, National Park, NJ

The Whitall house will be opening for tours on Saturday, April 13th. On Sunday, April 14th we will be having our Spring Festival to start out the season. It should be a great day with a lot of interesting demonstrations, including a program on tea, colonial inventions. 

Volunteers Needed! If you are a history buff, you couldn't find a better place to learn our fascination Revolutionary War history and meet other people interested in our history.  You will learn so much, I guarantee!  I was a volunteer for about five years, until my back and knees bothered my too much to stand for that many hours.  They were wonderful years with wonderful people.

Information for anyone interested in becoming a volunteer:
We would also like to offer Battlefield Tours. Please get in touch with the Whitall House and let me know if you can help out. If you are a new volunteer please let the staff know and they will pair you up with an experienced docent to shadow. Just a reminder the house is open for tours Thursday-Sunday from 1-4, except for special events. I look forward to a great year.
