Bunker Hill's Home School Debut!

From April 8th until April 10th, Bunker Hill took its first major trip to the 2010 Cincinnatti Home School Convention. We arrived early to set up our booth among the hundreds of others. We were nestled in a corner, right by the registration table. (In the picture to the left, we are the booth with the large, dark banner.) Both my Dad and I were excited and anxious to start the work day, and for good reason. This event is considered the biggest Home School covention. Judging by how large this building was, we expected it to be huge. Soon, a steady stream of people started coming. Eventually, the large crowd came and the hall was bustling with families.


A lot of people definitely showed interest in the docu-drama, and several kids stopped to watch. We had the docu-drama playing, and as families walked by the children just stopped and stared. With so many people walking around, we were able to contact different organizations and distrubutors. Both my Dad and I would be caught up talking to people right up until closing. We were very blessed to have a customer come back the next day to tell us how much she loved the DVD. Then she bought another one! This whole experience helped take the first little step to get THE BATTLE OF BUNKER HILL out to the public and show Americans that history hasn't died yet.

With all the great feedback we got, we are considering taking another trip. However, not so far from home this time! We'll see what the Lord has in store for us, but hopefully we'll have another post up soon about the next convention.
