"As the 250th Anniversary of the founding of the United States approaches, join us at the Field House Museum Saturday, April 18th, 2026 at 1:00 pm to learn about St. Louis’ own Revolutionary War battle. Ron Hack will speak on the Battle of Fort San Carlos (the Battle of St. Louis) which played a pivotal role in America's ultimate success against the British in the American Revolutionary War. He will explain the battle itself, the factors leading up to the attack in 1780, and how the battle shaped the future of St. Louis and Missouri." from https://fieldhousemuseum.org/events/programs/
