America 250: A Legacy of Independence

What does America mean to you?

Join us as we embark on an incredible journey through history by celebrating our nation’s 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. This historic occasion is an opportunity to reflect on America’s past, present and future as well as honor the principles our nation was founded on.

This is why we are proud to be uniting forces with America 250, a non-partisan organization established to lead the commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the United States. The foundation was created to oversee the country’s celebration through educational programs and public events such as America's Field Trip. This contest aims to ignite educational travel and exploration of America’s historic beauty.

We are looking for parents, teachers and school administrators to share their perspective about what their country means to them and encourage the voices of today’s youth to enter the America’s Field Trip contest for a chance to win a one of a kind experience. Your participation can spark up powerful conversations about the nation’s legacy and contributions of the American people.

Together, let’s celebrate 250 years in the making!
