Cleanup Day at Battlefield Park

Battlefield Cleanup 1

Members of the local community heard the call from the Princeton Battlefield Society to help clear the grounds of the historic Thomas Clarke house Saturday, March 28. Part of the effort was to remove the invasive bamboo that has found a strong foothold in recent years. The Thomas Clarke house, which witnessed the Battle of Princeton on January 3,1777, is being spruced up in phases. The first phase called for stabilizing the structural framing and was completed last fall. Work continues on Phase II this Spring. (Photo by John Lien)
