SUMMARY:New Date - The True Story of the Culper Spy Ring - Bill Bleyer
DESCRIPTION:Learn the true story of the Culper Spy Ring from former Newsday reporter Bill Bleyer\, author of George Washington’s Long Island Spy Ring: A History and Tour Guide. History buffs have long been fascinated by the operation of the Long Island-based Culper Spy Ring during the American Revolution\, especially since the airing of the AMC series “Turn.” Over the years\, there have been many legends\, such as the role played by Anna Strong’s clothesline\, and suppositions about how the spies operated to support George Washington’s Continental Army.  The PowerPoint lecture separates facts from fiction and details the ingenious operation of the intelligence network that helped the Patriots win the war. \nFree for BVHS Members\, $5 for non-members.

SUMMARY:Remembering the Ladies:  Long Island Women during the Revolutionary Era – Natalie Naylor
DESCRIPTION:Women are almost invisible in most accounts of the American Revolution on Long Island\, although they experienced more than seven years of British occupation\, skirmishes\, and calculated humiliations. Before the war\, it was the women who made the boycotts against British goods effective by weaving homespun and devising substitutes for tea. The wife of William Floyd\, one of Long Island’s Signers of the Declaration of Independence\, like thousands of other Long Island women\, became a refugee in Connecticut after the Battle of Long Island in August 1776. The country home of another Signer\, Francis Lewis in Whitestone\, was wrecked and his wife became a prisoner of the British for months. Women who stayed on the island had their fields and orchards destroyed and their cattle and food confiscated.  Some had to house and feed British officers in their homes. Most coped with the occupation and survived the ordeal. \nThe speaker\, Natalie Naylor\, is a retired Hofstra University professor and the author of Women in Long Island’s Past and numerous articles on Long Island history. \nFree for BVHS Members\, $5 for non-members.

SUMMARY:What Entertained the Founding Fathers– Robert Viagas
DESCRIPTION:The hit Broadway musical Hamilton showed the Founding Fathers (and Mothers) rapping and dancing. But what did they actually do for entertainment? Yes\, they danced\, but what kinds of dances? Yes\, they sang\, but what kinds of songs? Yes\, they attended the theatre and listened to concerts\, but which shows? And where? What stimulated their imaginations as they were forming a new nation? Robert Viagas lays it all out for you with samples and descriptions that will help to humanize the giants who created the United States 250 years ago. \n  \nFree for BVHS Members\, $5 for non-members.
