The First Continental Congress lasted only from September 5, 1774, to October 26, 1774, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Second Continental Congress ran from May 10, 1775, to March 2, 1789, but met in different places at different times. (See the external link below for the daily records of its proceedings.)

Georgia had not participated in the First Continental Congress and did not send delegates to the Second Continental Congress on May 10, 1775. On May 13, 1775, Lyman Hall was admitted as a delegate from the Parish of St. John's in the Colony of Georgia, not as a delegate from the colony itself.[4] On July 4, 1775, Georgia began a provincial congress to decide how to respond to the American Revolution, and that congress decided on July 8 to send delegates to the Continental Congress. They arrived on July 20.[5]

Your task will ultimately be to 'become' one of the courageous people who became a member of this continental congress. The ultimate goal will be to role play your character in a skit your group will create which will depict a scene from the first continental congress. To accomplish this task, you will have to follow several steps. Enjoy your trip back in time to the birth of a new nation and 'GOOD LUCK'!
