**THIS EVENT HAS PASSED **
The Arlington Historical Society is looking for volunteers to lead tours of the historic Jason Russell House on weekends from June through October.
Training for the 2025 season will be held Saturday, May 3.
The house saw some of the bloodiest fighting on the first day of the American Revolution on April 19, 1775, and its walls still bear musket ball holes from the fighting.

As you lead people through the house, you’ll help our visitors get a vivid sense of what happened in the house on that day and of its impact on the family who lived there, both then and in the century to follow.
For more information or to sign up, email contact@arlingtonhistorical.org or call the Arlington Historical Society at 781-648-4300.
