A Day with Young George Washington: Genesis of Leadership

"A Day with Young George Washington: Genesis of Leadership" RETURNS to Fort Ligonier August 9th!

Fort Ligonier and The U.S. Army War College (USAWC) have partnered and developed a FREE leadership seminar focused upon the growth of George Washington in Western Pennsylvania, 1753-1758. This seminar has been developed for young adults, 15-21 years of age (high school and college students), who are interested in developing their leadership potential, using the biographical example of George Washington at their same age, and at the identical location where he exercised his leadership.

This program will be performed using a day-long series of immersive experiences, historical interpreter engagement, and participatory programming! This innovative program will permit high school and college students to develop their own leadership skills, through using the example of young George Washington in the French and Indian War.

Program Begins: 9 AM

Program Ends: 5 PM

Lunch included.

Speakers include:

Judith Kalaora 

Matt Gault, Director of Education at Fort Ligonier 

Patrick Bratton 

Christian Fearer 

Schedule to follow!
