Are you a history teacher?

Do you homeschool, or lead a scout troop?

Do you want to help young people learn more about the women's rights movement and it's origins?

We have assembled a trunk load of materials to assist you.

Our traveling trunk is called "Pathways to Equality: a Traveling History Classroom."

  • meets NYS 4th and 5th grade cirriculum guidelines
  • includes an activity guide with document based questions, primary documents, period lithographs, and reproduction clothing
  • encompasses the antislavery movement, Quaker influence, and women's rights movement

To borrow the trunk, arrange for shipping, schedule a pickup, for more information, or to ask questions, e-mail park ranger David Malone, or telephone him at 315.568.2991 x 3002.
