Girl Power was the theme of the Seneca Falls Girls Conference teaching young women about the rights that they have earned just in the recent past. The young ladies in the middle school ECO class left the school at three o clock on Wednesday the 16^th and headed on their way to Seneca Falls. First, they stopped at the Museum for Women’s Rights and learned a little bit about the Women’s Rights Movement. Then, the girls watched a video showing them that they also have the power to do all the things that men do on a daily basis. After that, the girls took a trip to the chapel where the first women’s rights convention was held. Finally the learned about the Declaration of Sentiments, which is The Declaration of the Seneca Falls Convention, using the model of the U.S. Declaration of Independence, forthrightly demanded that the rights of women as right-bearing individuals be acknowledged and respected by society. It was signed by sixty-eight women and thirty-two men.

A passage from the Declaration states, "Now, in view of this entire disfranchisement of one-half the people of this country, their social and religious degradation--in view of the unjust laws above mentioned, and because women do feel themselves aggrieved, oppressed, and fraudulently deprived of their most sacred rights, we insist that they have immediate admission to all the rights and privileges which belong to them as citizens of the United States." This mean the women are upset and disagree with the way men treat them in society.

After learning about the Declaration, the girls went to an, in area pizza joint were they indulged in delicious pizza. After munching on some amazing pizza, the girls took a trip to the Belhurst Castle where the girls participated in a raffle where Sarah Montague won $200 worth of Hair supplies, $20 Pizza Hut card and $25 Wal-Mart card. There were a total of 60 or more people who attended and at least three schools in attendance at the conference.
