We are gearing up here at MHS for the second Maine Community Heritage Project Orientation — next Thursday and Friday, July 30 and 31. Lots of informative and interactive goodies planned:
- a keynote by University of New England historian Elizabeth De Wolfe
- a panel of ‘08-’09 MCHP team members
- brainstorming on ‘09-’10 team member assets
- training on how to use the Maine Memory Network
- how to generate topic ideas and gather resources
- MHS campus tours and (keep your fingers crossed for NO RAIN) a reception in the Longfellow Garden
Should be a good, productive, festive time — and get the new MCHPers off to a rousing start. (Which is good because local team planning meetings and project work begin the following week… phew!)
