Vail Symposium Special Fundraising Event

If you could talk with Thomas Jefferson or Theodore Roosevelt, what would you discuss? While we cannot resurrect our past presidents, we can offer the next best thing–historian and historical reenactor Clay Jenkinson. Jenkinson will portray Thomas Jefferson and Theodore Roosevelt (not simultaneously) on three nights. Start thinking about what you would ask them, because you might just get the chance.

Theodore Roosevelt Center Symposium: The Naturalist in the Arena

  • Dickinson State College (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS
When seven-year-old "Teedie" Roosevelt came upon a dead seal in front of a New York City shop, he measured it, gazed on it in wonder, and eventually obtained the skull for what would become the Roosevelt Museum of Natural History. His scientific curiosity, boyish enthusiasm, and love of the outdoors persisted through his hectic life as a public servant.
