Fort Ticonderoga:  Titles in the Schedule

4/21/2019

0 Comments

 
I have been staring at the schedule for my upcoming visit to America's Fort since it was delivered to my inbox on Wednesday.  It is a full schedule with some intriguing topics.  In addition to lectures, discussions, and workshops, participants will tour the fort and museum facilities, jaunt to Mount Defiance, take a boat cruise on Lake Champlain, and experience the 30-foot bateau (flat-bottomed rowing boat) firsthand.

I confess to being overwhelmed by the topics in the schedule.  Just when I think you know most of the answers, a schedule like this comes into play and challenges me.  That just means I have the opportunity for lots of growth, this summer.
