About The Oral History Project
We all have stories to tell, stories we have lived from the inside out. Oral history listens to these stories. It is our hope that the oral history project for the town of St. George will provide a significant role in capturing the pasts and bringing to light the impact of everyday activities and the importance of hidden pasts told through the voices of those who would not appear in an 'official' record. The social interactions of this project allows users to perform and make sense of our social world. Understanding the diverse formal and informal ways in which the population of St. George participates in the making of history, strengthening relationships and creating civic engagement.
