Hi, Everyone.
Friday, May 14th, I was at NNHS and gave four presentations. I talked about my experiences in the 60's, primarily about the anti-war movement. I sang eight protest songs from that time period. Nancy Bolliger, one of my adult students, helped me by singing a few of the songs. We had a great time.
The first two periods were the best because we were fresh and the kids were generally awake. After lunch, both the kids and I were ready for a nap. But we got through and the last period presentation was a lot of fun.
It was a lot of hard work and at the end of the day I was worn out. It was like playing a four hour gig!
I want to thanks Kermit Eby for inviting us and Jennifer Weigand for be so kind and helpful. And the other History teachers were great. The kids were respectful, which I appreciated. They were interested in what we had to say.
It was lots of fun and I hope to do it again next year!
