About the Project
Purpose and Mission
Champlain: The Lake Between is one element of the project "Lake Champlain Voyages of Discovery: Bringing History Home,". The Quadricentennial of Champlain's arrival was commemorated in 2009. The heritage of those cultures who have lived in the region since long before Champlain arrived are not widely understood. Neither is the new era begun in 1609. This project proposes to fill those voids, and to inspire communities to learn about links between their own local area and world and national history.
