on knowledge gained at camp,
participants –
with
the guidance of the Sundog Theatre
teaching artist – will write a short
play about the events at the Conference
House. The last day of camp will
include a culminating performance that
takes the audience through moments in

actions, and personalities of these
makers of history.
