LAS VEGAS (April 1, 2009) - Students from Bailey Middle School in Las Vegas will be producing short films about their experiences at Lake Mead. The films will be used for National Park Service youth outreach efforts.
The funds for this project were made available for outreach projects that coincide with the release of Ken Burns' new film, "The National Parks: America's Best Idea," that will air this fall on PBS. Students from Bailey Middle School are featured in an “Untold Stories” segment of the film.
The three to five minute short films will debut at a film festival at Dr.
William H. (Bob) Bailey Middle School the evening of May 27.
This digial story telling project is a partnership between Clark County
School District and the National Park Service. Funding for this project came in part from grants from the National Park Foundation through the generous support of the Evelyn and Walter Hass Jr. Fund, funds from Western National Parks Association and donation of supplies by REI of Henderson, NV
