 Archmere Academy teacher Tara Creekmore says that's true in an election year especially, and she's been preparing for the inaugural YPCC in the 250th anniversary year of the first Continental Congress. Teams from each of the 13 original colonies, as well as one from Philadelphia, are spending several days immersed in history-related discussions and visiting the city's historical sites. Creekmore and Archmere student Josie Calder have a mutual respect for each other and for their love of history.
