Students came in from across the state to gather at the MOFB headquarters for a quick introduction by MOFB President Garrett Hawkins and orientation before being bused to the Capitol to meet with their legislators. While at the Capitol, some groups were invited into the side galleries by their legislators while the House was in session. Other students visited with their representatives and senators in the hallways outside the chambers. The students returned for lunch and an afternoon of learning.
