I stumbled across a site, Americana Corner, with some interesting articles and videos containing some basic information about the Revolutionary period, as well as specific campaigns and figures.

"Bluegrass Colonel"
My father didn't serve in WWII.  It wasn't for lack of trying.  He attempted to enlist 3 separate times.  The last time the doctor said he was too short.  He responded that he signed up again because he said he saw a poster that was recruiting short men to be pilots.  The doctor said, "Short, yes.  But this is ridiculous."  In my book, he's still a hero.

Great find!

They also give grants from $5,000-10,000 per year if we could figure out how our education fits with the grant or other Appleseeders who are involved in projects that would qualify.

QuoteGrant requests must fit into at least one of the following two categories:

     Restore and/or improve a site, object, or display focused on American history from 1607 to 1876 that will enhance the visitor experience; and/or

     Educate visitors about the site and its role in American history.
