The weeklong experience will consist of participation in the various levels and branches of our Minnesota government. Every girl will hold an office. There will be campaigning and elections. There will be precinct caucuses and state conventions. Highlights of the week will be the Inauguration of the Governor, State Constitutional Officers, and legislative sessions. They will be held in the House and Senate chambers at the State Capitol in St. Paul. Mock Trials will also be held in the Supreme Court chambers.
