Walk a wooded trail to the historic Odell House property in Greenburgh which served as headquarters for the French General Rochambeau for 6 weeks in 1781, with Washington’s army camped nearby. After a tour of the grounds, hear the latest on the ongoing study of that Phillipsburg Encampment, which preceded the famous Franco-American march to the Battle of Yorktown in Virginia.
