The Airborne & Special Operations Museum Foundation invites you to attend a special ceremony and family fun day at the U.S. Army Airborne & Special Operations Museum as we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Liberty Tree on Saturday, August 16, 2025.
Join us at 8 AM on the corner of Hay Street and Hillsboro for this early morning ceremony and the dedication of a permanent historical marker. This project was produced with assistance from the America 250 North Carolina initiative, administered by the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.

After the ceremony, there will be fun and games for the whole family as we host Camp Flintlock in the Museum’s Reflection Garden. Based in Four Oaks, N.C., Camp Flintlock specializes in hands-on historical education about life in the American Colonies through a series of engaging activities. Watch a musket demonstration, learn quill and pen writing, block printing, marching techniques, and tomahawk throw.
This event will be held from 8:30 A.M. until noon and is free for the entire family.
