The Pines Bridge Monument Fundraising Committee will hold a fundraiser at Traveler's Rest (located at Route 100 in Yorktown) on Thursday, April 19 at 6:30 p.m.
All proceeds will go to offset the cost for the Battle of Pines Bridge Monument, which depicts three figures in "heroic scale" standing eight feet tall. They represent soldiers participating in the 1781 battle including those of African American and Native American decent, as well as Colonel Christopher Greene, who led the battle.
The cost to attend the fundraiser is $100 per person, which will include appetizers, dinner and a cash bar. Seating is limited.

If you'd like to contribute to the Fund, make checks payable to Yorktown Historical Society Mail to: Pines Bridge Monument C/O Joseph Visconti, Fundraising Chairman, 800 Granite Springs Road, Yorktown Heights, NY 10598.
