CELEBRATING WOMEN ELECTED TO SERVE THE STATE OF MONTANA
THURSDAY, APRIL 16, 2009
CAPITOL ROTUNDA
9:00 A.M.
The Capitol Complex Advisory Council is proud to sponsor an event honoring women elected to represent the citizens of Montana. This event will feature a keynote address from Ellen Baumler who will speak about the first women elected in Montana and the long road they traveled to win the right to hold public office.
Following the speakers there will be an unveiling ceremony for the plaque honoring the "Centennial Celebration of Women Serving in State Legislatures: 1895-1995." In 1995 this plaque was placed in the Capitol, but later removed when the Capitol underwent a major renovation. Since the renovation, the plaque was redone and is now ready for permanent display in the halls of the Capitol for future generations to enjoy.
