Fort Ticonderoga’s Annual History Conference for Educators
“The American Revolution”
May 30, 2025
Fort Ticonderoga’s annual History Conference for Educators on Friday, May 30, 2025, will focus on the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution with sessions using five themes to dig deeper into the War for American Independence. The themes are:
- Power of Place
- Revolutionary Possibilities
- Shaping Nations, Forging Identities
- Subjects, Citizens, Service
- Manufacturing Independence
As an example, for the “Power of Place” theme, Staff from the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum will share findings from the recent Arnold’s Bay Research Project conducted since 2021. Exploring both underwater and along the shoreline, this project examined the area where part of Benedict Arnold’s fleet from the Battle of Valcour in October 1776 was abandoned and deliberately burned.
This conference is in-person only (no virtual option).
