As inspiration, Amy Sampson’s 2022-23 Grants in Place Fellow project idea stemmed from her students desire to preserve the history of their community. Amy and her students created historical markers for significant locations throughout their town including the Trail of Tears, how Monett, MO was once the strawberry capital of the world and an aviation hotbed just a few years after Kitty Hawk. Amy’s students researched and wrote the signs, then collaborated with local historians to edit and fact check. Amy and her student’s were even featured on their local news during their project, check it out here: https://www.ky3.com/2023/03/30/preserving-history-monett-students-design-31-historical-markers/
