On Friday, June 6, 2025, fifty middle and high school students from all three counties gathered at Legislative Hall in Dover, where they engaged first-hand with the historical considerations around American independence. They engaged in a Mock Continental Congress, inspired by the Second Continental Congress that convened in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the summer of 1776. Students were nominated by their teachers for participation in the immersive, day-long educational experience.
