The New Jersey Societies of the Sons of the American Revolution (NJSSAR) will present a $2,500 check to the Princeton Battlefield Society (www.pbs1777.org) at a wreath laying ceremony at the Mercer Oak on January 3 at the Princeton Battlefield State Park at Noon.  The wreath laying commemorates the January 3, 1777 Battle of Princeton and will kick off the PBS’  50th anniversary as a national historic organization.  The check represents the NJSSARs commitment to the PBS’ History & Heritage Fund.  It will be presented by Robert C. Meyer, NJSSAR president, and accepted by Michael Russell, a PBS trustee and SAR member.  Princeton’s newly-elected mayor, Mark Freda, will be present along with Chair of the Mercer County Commissioners, Andrew Koontz.  The wreath laying will follow New Jersey’s COVID Guidelines, with only a few Color Guard members in attendance.  The ceremony will be available by Zoom.
