Each major anniversary since 1776 has sparked reflection on the Declaration of Independence—what did the Spirit of ’76 mean to Americans and to Members of Congress? In 1976, Arba the Eagle puppet was a six-foot wide eagle used in videos to promote Bicentennial events supported by the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration (ARBA). To celebrate America's 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, we invite you to "Get Into America" and make a commitment stating what you will do for your community. Write or draw your pledge on a red, white, or blue feather and attach it to a life-sized reproduction of Arba the Eagle puppet!
