The topic is “Western Pennsylvania History, 1750-1850.”
Students are required to research and construct a presentation on a standard-size trifold display board for delivery to the Bradford House in early March.

Winning projects will be displayed at the symposium on 18th-century Life and Customs in Western Pennsylvania, “Remember the Ladies – An Evening with Abigail Adams,” March 31 in the chapel at Old Main at Washington & Jefferson College.
Cash prizes will be awarded to the top five entries in fifth through eighth grade and ninth through 12th grade. A special prize will be awarded for the entry best representing women of Western Pennsylvania between 1750 and 1850.
