Planning before Kick-off Saturday!

1/7/2019

0 Comments

 
The Steering Committee met this weekend to plan for the first Off the Map session with students on Saturday, February 16, 2019. Mayor Taylor led us on a community walk to downtown Maryville's Preservation Plaza. We also discussed essential histories of Alcoa-Maryville that should live in the first iteration of the mobile app. We hope to hear from participating students about the themes/narratives they want residents and visitors of their community to know about. The Blount County Public library staff will be pulling resources for students to do additional archival research on these essential histories. Steering Committee member Keri Prigmore is co-planning a panel discussion about the separation and development of Alcoa and Maryville. We continue to build upon the Off the Map Facilitator Guide so that educators can continue this work beyond this first year.
