HISTORY of UPC

Ulster Project Cincinnati has been hosting teens in Cincinnati every summer since 1989.

History

Before moving to Cincinnati, Marybeth Kantner had been involved with the Milwaukee Project (1979-83) and DuPage Project (1983-86). With the help of Crestview Presbyterian Church, Marybeth contacted the Waterstones and the Roman Catholic Archdiocese. In 1987 an Ulster Project International conference was held in Massillon, Ohio, where Marybeth met with fellow Cincinnatians Dan and Chris Bissmeyer (formerly of the Lafayette, Louisiana Project) and Dave McHenry. Meetings were then held with the Waterstones in Cincinnati at the Archdiocese, Presbytery offices and local churches.
