America’s Summer Roadtrip is a project of The Pursuit of History™, the non-profit organization that engages adults in conversation about history and connects them with historic sites in their communities and across the country. Our goal with the Roadtrip was to celebrate these important sites and bring them, and the stories they tell, to new audiences around the country and around the world.
Please vote for projects like this by making a donation or purchasing some fun history-related tees, books, posters, stickers, or magnets. The success of these fundraising efforts and feedback from this event will help us determine future Roadtrips.
