About this event

Description

On July 18, 1774, 25 gentlemen from Fairfax County (including Alexandria) signed the Fairfax Resolves which rejected the British Parliament’s claim of supreme authority over the American colonies. John Carlyle, George Mason, and George Washington are names still known today but who were the others and what stakes did they have in signing this document? Join us for these specialty tours in commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the Fairfax Resolves to learn more. Specialty tours are at 10am & 2pm each day and are $8 per person. Registration is required.
