Past Events

2011 Marked the 17th anniversary of the Reenactment of the Battles of Kemps Landing & Great Bridge. This annual event is held the first weekend in December.

The 2011 Waterways Heritage Festival was a great success! A celebration of the heritage arts, fine arts, and music, the festival brought together vendors and exhibitors from around the Commonwealth with trades varying from knitting to painting, and woodcarving to soapmaking.

On December 4, 2009 the City of Chesapeake, in partnership with Open Roads Consulting and the Great Bridge Battlefield & Waterways History Foundation, honored an American hero, William "Billy" Flora with a street as a Dedication to Billy Flora. Billy Flora, a freed slave that fought on the side of the Patriots, is widely considered a hero of the
Battle of Great Bridge.

Special thanks to the Chesapeake Sheriff's Office & Sheriff John Newhart for their lead sponsorship of our 2009 Great Bridge Waterways Festival on October 24, 2009!
We are so grateful for their continued support of our cause!
