STILLWATER — Saratoga National Historical Park is celebrating its 75th
anniversary in 2013 with a variety of events throughout the year.

The history-changing battles fought there took place in September and
October 1777, but another 161 years passed before the site joined the
National Park system in 1938.

A major commemoration is planned for June 1, at the place on
modern-day Route 4 where British Gen. John Burgoyne surrendered his
sword to American Gen. Horatio Gates.
