Brag Book
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 webmaster@livinghistoryed.org. 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:
Living History Education Foundation

Buchanan, NY 10511
We would also love to come and see your program in action, so if you are planning an event, please let us know and we can put it on our schedule page.
