Tennessee History Day 2009 is behind us and I must say that I think it was a great success! Tennessee students turned out great work as usual and our group of judges and volunteers was first class! Thanks to everyone for all your hard work.
The Tennessean did give us a bit of news coverage this weekend. Click here to see the story...http://www.tennessean.com/article/20090405/NEWS01/904050388
Also, we were fortunate to have Dr. Cathy Gorn, executive director for National History Day, spend some time with us doing advocacy work for History Day. Senator Mark Norris presented us with a great opportunity for Cathy to address the Tennessee State Senate on Thursday, April 2nd during their session. She did a great job raise the profile of History Day in Tennessee and we are grateful to her for her time and attention. To see archived video of this speech, go to the Tennessee State Senate website and click on "Senate Video." The session you'll want to watch is the one for Thursday, April 2nd.
