Resources for Medieval Era Enthusiasts

A More Focused Direction

Medieval Living started as a way for me to share with others my love for the Medieval era. My family, for the most part, also has this interest. Over the past month, my daughter and son-in-law have begun putting together plans for a not-for-profit educational organization focusing on the history of Medieval England. I was invited to join in the effort – and somehow came out being listed as president on the incorporation papers – hmmm. Anyway – we are still in the organizational phase, but Medieval Living is moving from a hobbist’s blog to an actual nonprofit business. Our hope is to create a viable educational forum, which will include such things as classrooms and a living village. As I am an educator by profession, I intend to develop courses that will meet educational standards and fit into school curriculum. We envision supporting both local schools as well as those families who home school their children. When will this all come together? Good question! Our business plan will have to answer that question and many more. . . as I said, we are just in the formative stage, so much is to be determined. For now, the blog will remain much as it is, but the accompanying website will undergo some signicant changes as things develop. Wish us luck on this endeavor!!!
