A 60-minute historical presentation with live music.  With original photographs, vintage images, and patriotic music, Kevin Woyce will lead us through the evolution of our American Flag - from its origin in the Revolution to the addition of our 50th state and star in 1960.  He will explain how a poem about the 1814 Battle of Baltimore - set to a popular English melody - became our beloved National Anthem.  

A joint presentation by the Historical Societies of Chatham Borough and Chatham Township.
