Memorial Day Ceremony 2026, Washington Crossing Historic Park
Washington Crossing Historic Park will hold its annual Memorial Day Ceremony on Sunday, May 24 at 1 PM at the Revolutionary War Soldiers’ Gravesite behind the Thompson-Neely House (1638 River Road, New Hope, PA 18938). The observance will include a colonial color guard, fife and drum music, Revolutionary War reenactors, veterans, and other honored guests as we gather to pause and reflect on the meaning of service and sacrifice. During the ceremony, American flags will be placed on the graves of soldiers who died during the Continental Army’s December 1776 encampment in Bucks County. While no Americans were killed during the Delaware River crossing or the First Battle of Trenton, some soldiers later died from exposure, disease, or previous injuries. Captain-Lieutenant Moore is the only soldier buried at this site whose identity is known.
