✨ Trivia Tuesday, anyone? 🧠📜

⁉️ DYK that nearly 250 years ago, two units of North Carolina militia troops set up camp for several months right in our backyard outside of Camden? ⛺🌲

Here is the fascinating history behind it:

👀 The Threat: After the British failed to take Charleston at the Battle of Sullivan’s Island in June 1776, revolutionary leaders in North and South Carolina panicked—worried a massive counter-offensive would hit the South from the sea or via Florida.

🎬 The Action: On November 23, 1776, the North Carolina Provincial Council voted to raise two special emergency regiments: the 1st and 2nd Battalions of Volunteers. Commanded by the Halifax District Brigade of Militia, they marched south.

🏕️ The Camden Camp: Arriving in late 1776 or early 1777, these troops set up a semi-permanent training and drilling camp just outside of Camden, spending months marching, drilling, and bracing for an invasion.

✨ The Outcome: While a direct British invasion didn't happen right then (as the British turned their focus to Pennsylvania and New York in 1777), these troops served as a vital deterrent and rapid-response force!

👋 The Farewell: By April 10, 1777, the camp's purpose had dissolved, the regiments were officially disbanded, and the men headed home to North Carolina.

🎉 A big thank you to Lon Outen, staff member at the Camden Archives & Museum, for uncovering this hidden piece of local history! 🙌
