N.S.C.A.R. National Project 2015-2016

Theme: Road To Independence
Project: The First Oval Office

    The N.S.C.A.R. National Project is to raise funds for the “The First Oval Office” permanent exhibit at the Museum of the American Revolution. Many places can claim that George Washington spent the night, but how many people can say that they have saved, made a home for, and promoted education about the room where George Washington spent the entire Revolutionary War? We are presented with this unique opportunity!

    The Museum of the American Revolution is a brand new museum located in the historic heart of Philadelphia, the city that served as the headquarters of America’s independence and founding. Located a few blocks from the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, this museum will be the home of The First Oval Office, General George Washington’s marquis tent. Within this tent George Washington was visited by Founding Fathers, Great Ladies, Military leaders, and important Allies from 1775-1783. This authentic witness to history traveled the Road To Independence.

    I hope that you will join me in my passion for C.A.R. and its message. Together we can travel the Road To Independence and preservation of our nations’ history with the Museum of the American Revolution, and can create a permanent home for The First Oval Office. Together we can present the next generation to what we hold important-Independence, Service and Patriotism.

Theme: Journey Through History
Project: Liberty Hall

    State President, Tara A. Greene, is proud to announce the N.J.C.A.R. State project for 2015-2016. The theme is “Journey Through History” with the goal to raise funds to support LIBERTY HALL and the educational history  programs they offer to children of all ages.

    LIBERTY HALL was home to Governor William Livingston. Built in 1772 on 120 acres in Elizabethtown, NJ, this home and property have been extensively altered over the years, yet stands as a historic view into our past. William Livingston served as a member of the First, Second and Third Continental Congress and as a signer of the United States Constitution became New Jersey’s first governor. In 1811, the Kean family purchased the property and lived in LIBERTY HALL until 1995. Today, LIBERTY HALL offers a fascinating Journey Through History by showcasing the experiences of one American family both as a museum and through historic tours and events.
