'Turn Beauty Inside Out' Event on Saturday May 8
All Area Middle and High School Girls Invited to Free Leadership Rally

On Saturday May 8, middle and high school girls can participate in the first local Turn Beauty Inside Out (TBIO) event which will feature woman leaders Carolyn Peterson, Leslyn McBean, Kathy Luz Herrera, Robin Korherr, Sandra Gittleman, Cathy Valentino, Nancy Schuler, and Pamela Mackesey. The TBIO Leadership Conference which is free and doesn't require advance registration will include an interactive and multimedia session on media literacy with Cyndy Scheibe of Ithaca College. McBean will give the keynote speech at the event's start. It will run from 1:00-4:00 p.m. at the Tompkins County Human Services Building, 320 W. State Street, Ithaca.

TBIO is a national ongoing campaign to redefine beauty.  Beauty does not have to be determined by the physical features that we inherit according to Caren Cooper, event chair.  Beauty can be about the quality of our character, the force of our actions, and our ability to care enough about the world to work to transform it.  For example, this year's national theme TBIO-Women in Politics" reflects that leadership is beautiful.

With the help of Ithaca College's Project Look Sharp, GirlsmArts, Mind on the Media and AAUW (American Association of University Women), girls at the TBIO Leadership Conference will be able to participate in some empowering and important activities in order to Turn Beauty Inside Out in Ithaca, in their schools, and for their peers.  Girls will learn that careers in politics are within their reach and that participation in our democracy will soon become not just their right, but an empowering process and responsibility. They will interact with each other and with Ithaca College students and with the local woman politicians who will be joining them for the afternoon event.

Spread the word to each young woman you know and encourage her to attend TBIO on May 8.  Don't miss it!  If you have questions, contact Caren Cooper <cbc25@cornell.edu>, 257-4231.
