| This
page, the Brag Book, is a page in progress. The desire of the
LHEF is to develop living history programs throughout the state
and to celebrate their achievements. The following articles feature
the Living History program that Foundation president, Joe Ryan,
founded and developed over the course of more than 30 years at
Blue Mountain Middle School in Montrose, NY. If you would like
to know more about that particular program, or if you would like
to start a program of your own, you can contact the foundation
via telephone at 914.739.0136 or you can email Joe Ryan at livinghistory@optonline.net .
If you have created a program of
your own and you would like to share it with us, and would
like some publicity for your program
through this website, please email Pete Kruppenbacher, the Foundation
webmaster, at pete.kruppenbacher@gmail.com We can post photos
of you and your students (providing the standard release forms
have been signed and are on file with the Foundation) and we
can add links to publicity that you might have received. If you
have many photos and they are on a disk, they can be sent to
Barbara Neff, Administrative Assistant, at the foundation:

Greetings, Mr Ryan!
I saw the article in the 8/18 "The Daily Cortlandt",
and that prompted my email.
I live in Arizona now and have a 15 y/o son and 10 y/o daughter.
Even though it's been about 30 years since I had you as a teacher,
every time I see a Revolutionary War show on history channel,
or discovery, I always look to see if you are one of the "re-enactors".
I often tell my son about being on your team and the fun that
it was.
I wish you great success in bringing "living history"
to, not only the state, but the rest of the country.
All my best!
