Andersonville National Historic Site - Long Range Interpretive Plan
Pond collaborated with the National Park Service to develop a Long- Range Interpretive Plan (LRIP) for the Andersonville National Historic Site. The site includes Camp Sumpter, one of the largest military prisons established during the Civil War, and Andersonville National Cemetery, the resting place of deceased POWs. The National Prisoner of War Museum, added in 1998, honors POWs of all wars. The Pond Team led stakeholders and park staff through interactive exercises at two site workshops to determine potential interpretive sites and themes within the park to enhance the visitor experience. The LRIP identifies and analyzes interpretation, education, and visitor experience for the park. The plan recommends interpretive programs throughout the Andersonville National Historic Site, as well as educational and advocacy programs in neighboring communities.
