200 Students with 200 Veterans


 
The Windsor Historical Society - Veterans Memories Project is hosting "200 Students with 200 Veterans" next Remembrance Day.  
In order to participate you must write an essay of up to 400 words on one of these topics:  the Battle of the Atlantic, the Battle of Vimy Ridge, the Sinking of the Bismarck, or the involvement of Spitfire Planes in WWII.  Those selected will have the opportunity to interview veterans one-on-one or in small groups and experience hisotry in a way they never have before.  Afterwards, students will write about their experiences (400 - 600 words) and will be eligible to win prizes that may include a trip to Ottawa, scholarships, gift cards, etc.  
Start writing now and check in with Ms D'Angelo in the fall.
