AUGUSTA – Old Fort Western’s 2008-09 “Guide to Pre-Scheduled Programs at Old Fort Western” will be posted to the fort’s Web site on Aug. 25.

The brochure describes in detail 17 programs for use by public, private, and home-school teachers. Librarians and others who conduct public programs, such as clubs, groups, historical societies, and civic and social organizations of all kinds, may also schedule programs from the brochure. All programs may be scheduled at the fort. All programs are also available in your classroom or where your group meets, which is an important feature in an age of high transportation costs.

A summary of the brochure has just been mailed to 8,500 teachers, guidance counselors, curriculum coordinators, principals, superintendents and other educators throughout Maine. That summary is also available on the fort’s web site until the full brochure is posted on Aug. 25. FMI: www.oldfortwestern.org or 626-2385.
