SUMMARY:CANCELED - Arizona's Great Escape
DESCRIPTION:During the night of Christmas Eve in 1944\, twenty-five Nazi German prisoners of war escaped from Papago Park POW camp on the outskirts of Phoenix and headed towards Mexico. These men were hardcore Nazis\, ex U-boat commanders\, and submariners\, who had successfully dug a nearly 200-foot underground tunnel that took four months to complete. Many people may have heard of this event\, but few know the details. This presentation tells the story of what happened to these German POWs and the Arizona residents who encountered them. \nSteve Renzi\, a University of Arizona graduate with a degree in history\, believes that every generation must learn about who and what came before them or else the lessons learned are lost. As a writer and photographer with a teacher’s certificate in secondary education\, Renzi is always searching for new ways of exploring our history. He has been published in over 200 magazine and newspaper articles and is currently a writing and photography teacher\, as well as a basketball coach.
