An Experience 2 Years Overdue

This is my second rally-type event I'll have been to in the last two years. The first "youth" event I took part in was in Washington, D.C. two years ago. That particular event was supposed to be entirely geared towards the youth who were in attendance. Youth from practically all across the contry came to D.C.for this conference. Unfortunately, the only event that was remotely geared towards the youth participants was a youth panel. The remainder of the event was geared towards parents and educators.
This particular event appears to be the exact opposite. The whole thing is centered around students voicing their concerns about the state of our education system. It's nice that students are finally getting the chance to voice how they feel the current education system is being run. After about two years of not being able to speak out about education, I'm glad that I finally am getting a chance to speak to lawmakers about my concerns about how students with disabilities are not always "equal" when it comes to education, especially in college.
The difference between the two experiences is probably the amount of walking. In the experience from two years ago, the entire event was housed in a hotel, so there wasn't much walking involved. In the instance of this event, however, their's going to be a great deal of walking outside, as well as inside. Therefore, I'm using my wheelchair so I don't get tired during this AWESOME experience.
