FAIRHOPE HISTORICAL COMMISSION SPONSORING
Local high-schoolers will be participating in a history competition at the city's museum on February 6 as part of state history month this April.
Historical Commission member and Fairhope high school 11-12 grade history teacher Ginger Golson is organizing the event here, with student projects to be judged during the monthly First Friday Art Walk, 6-8 PM at the city's history museum.
A state history day will then be held April 9; Revolution, Reaction and Reform are this year's themes to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
From the Alabama History Day's website (click):
"Alabama History Day invites you to get creative and demonstrate your critical thinking skills in our annual competition. The best thing about this competition is that YOU select the topic and the presentation format! Build a website, create an exhibit, write a paper, prepare a live performance, or film a documentary!"
Three members of the Fairhope Historical Commission will be judging for best presentation. The public is invited to come by to see their work as well, in the upstairs meeting room.
Prizes could include gift certificates, cash awards, or something else.
The National History Day non-profit is the organizer on the national level.
