Teaching kids history is so important! History connects children to their communities, and provides models for good and responsible citizenship. Support the Canal Corridor Association this #Giving Tuesday and help send students on educational field trips to the I&M Canal Boat and other canal related sites to learn about an important piece of American history, the Illinois & Michigan Canal. Help us create stewards of this special place
