The Constitution Island Association Inc in Philipstown, NY is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich history of Constitution Island and its inhabitants, from the indigenous Lenape Tribe to the early Dutch settlers and American Revolutionary War soldiers. The island's significance is highlighted by the Warner Family, who taught bible classes to West Point cadets in the 19th century, and its proximity to the Great Chain, which protected the Hudson River and American Independence. Visitors and volunteers are invited to explore the island's historic Warner home, gardens, and redoubt paths, immersing themselves in the stories of early patriots and the island's role in shaping American history. The Constitution Island Association welcomes all to become part of this living history and experience the inspiring legacy of the island's past.Generated from the website
