4 pictures of Spirit of America (armed services production)

Last Friday we went to the Spirit of America production sponsored by the Department of the Army at the coliseum in our town. It was a musical, drama, re-enactment and staged production honoring our country and the armed services throughout its history. It was a free presentation designed to draw in people of all ages, both veterans and children alike. My two kids and I enjoyed it immensely. They got out of book work for the day and I got to practice with my zoom lens!

Love a good field trip!

      Thanks so much! It was my first time using a zoom lens inside a huge arena so they weren’t as bad as I thought! Thanks for visiting!

    Oh, I’ve gone to this show in DC a few times; love it! I didn’t realize they performed it elsewhere. Awesome presentation.

      We had never been before and enjoyed it tremendously (plus I got to practice with my long range lens!)

    We are currently studying the revolution. I am going to see if this show ever plays in NYC!

      I don’t know their schedule but I think the show travels to different cities each year. It is great for whatever you are studying in American history.

    Looks like a great field trip to me — and I am willing to bet they learned more from the field trip than they would have from bookwork!

    Thanks for linking!

      Field trips are great memory makers! We do bookwork but there’s a lot of free exploration and interest driven studying going on!
