In a continued celebration of Delaware 250, the 250 Ride Reenactment immerses Delawareans into history with community events to reenact Caesar Rodney’s historic ride from Dover to Philadelphia.
Delaware played a key role in the birth of the United States, from Caesar Rodney’s famous overnight ride to vote for independence to the meetings in Dover that helped shape the nation’s Constitution.
Between the Declaration of Independence and the election of George Washington, the one person some historians consider as the United States leader was the President of Congress. Delaware's Thomas McKean was the eighth man to hold this office.
