Essay Questions

Every year, we receive more applicants than we are able to accommodate at YHP. Applicants are primarily evaluated based on their responses to these essay questions. Please answer thoughtfully!

National Heritage Areas (NHAs) are designated by Congress as places where natural, cultural, and historic resources work together to form a cohesive, nationally important “lived-in” landscape. In February 2019, Congress designated 3000+ miles of Washington's saltwater coastline as an NHA to honor maritime heritage. This new Maritime Washington NHA will be the focus of this year's YHP. What do you hope to learn about maritime heritage by attending YHP 2022? What do you think is the best way to learn about history/heritage?*

Describe an intangible (meaning non-physical) practice, activity, tradition, or other resource that is important to your family or local community. Why do you value this resource? If you had to convince someone else that it should matter to them as well, what would you say?*
