On April 19, 1775 “The Shot Heard 'Round the World” was fired on the Green in Lexington, Massachusetts.

On that day, a mere 60-70 of Lexington's Minutemen had assembled on the Green and faced 800 British troops. Captain Parker of the Lexington Militia, told his men, "Stand your ground. Don't fire unless fired upon. But if they want to have war, let it begin here."

The British demanded they lay down their arms and disperse. When the men, would not lay down their arms, an incensed British officer fired his pistol at the Minutemen, immediately followed by a full volley by the British troops, and the rest is history – America's History.

Over two centuries later, We the People, are facing vital challenges to the freedom on which our great country was founded. So on April 19, 2009, we will come together again to honor, respect and celebrate the courage these brave Americans demonstrated as they stood their ground in the face of brutal tyranny.

Stewart Rhodes – Founder, Oath-Keepers, On that day, on Lexington Green, on April 19, we Oath Keepers will read aloud our Declaration of Ten Orders We Will NOT Obey and will then reaffirm our oaths to defend the Constitution.

And, for those of you who have never taken the oath to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic, here is your chance to do it on a special day, in a special place, on hallowed ground, in honor of the embattled farmers - Oath Keepers all - who stood and fought at Lexington and Concord on that day so long ago and then beat the hell out of the Regulars all the way back to Boston, along "Battle Road."

We can't imagine a more soul stirring experience than to stand in ranks, right there where those heroes stood, and mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor in defense of the liberty those men won for us and in defense of the Constitution.

Join us! Veterans, active duty, police, fire fighters, and dedicated patriots. We realize this is short notice, but if you can get there, please do join us for what will most assuredly be an electrifying experience you will never forget.

The official event will run from 12 noon to 3 pm, on Sunday, April 19 but Stewart Rhodes, Dave Freeman, Jim Ayala, and others within the national Oath Keepers organization will be there from Friday evening, all weekend, and part of Monday and you can expect that we will make full use of our time together in fellowship with our brothers in arms, whether it be in quiet contemplation on the Green or at Concord Bridge, walking along Battle Road, touring historic sights in Boston, or over some pints of Ale at a local historic tavern.

All are welcome. We would be honored to meet you and spend time with you.

SPECIAL FILMING OF THE EVENTS, OF OATH KEEPERS READING OF OUR DECLARATION, AND FILMING OF YOUR OATHS AND TESTIMONIALS.

We will bring several cameras and film crews and will be filming the entire ceremony, and will also be filming those Oath Keepers who are willing to take part in an outreach film project we are working on. Part of that project will include individual active duty, veterans, police, fire fighters, etc. reading off parts of the Declaration of Ten Orders We Will Not Obey and also reading off parts of the oath to defend the Constitution.
