VALLEY FORGE WORKSHOP: The program is designed to send qualified California educators to Valley Forge for a one week intensive workshop which enables them to develop a prospectus to ensure the “American way” so that our youth of today may have a better understanding of both historic origins of their liberty and the responsibilities of good citizenship required of them.
