Story Corp
 We will transport you to the Hartsdale Train Station to catch a train to Grand Central Station where you can participate in Story Corp. You must make an appointment to schedule your time at the story booth. Two people must participate in this project. We will pick you up at the Hartsdale Train Station at 3:00pm.

What is Story Corps?
Story Corps is a national project to instruct and inspire people to record each other’s stories in sound. Story Corps is opening soundproof booths across the country where people can record broadcast-quality oral history interviews with older relatives and other loved ones, with the guidance of a trained facilitator. At the booth the facilitator helps create a question list and handles the technical aspects of the recording.
At the end of the forty-minute session, the participants receive a CD of their interview. With their permission, a copy is added to the story Corps Archive, housed at the American Folk life Center at the Library of Congress. This collection will eventually grow into an oral history of America.
