My favorite part of our field trip to the State House was paging, which was when students would deliver messages from one person to another. As pages all of the Boxberry students delivered notes for the representatives of the house. We sat by a board called a switch board with a bunch of buttons that had the numbers of the seats on them. When a button lit up we traveled to that numbered chair by counting how many rows up and how many across. We took the letter from that person and delivered it to the numbered seat written on the outside of the letter. Paging was my favorite part because I liked delivering messages for such an important meeting.
