ers and fathers last year. Rep-
resentatives from throughout
the company spoke to the group
and told them about the nu-
merous jobs that go into mak-
ing a large organization like
AAA run smoothly.
Career development coun-
selor Sharon Schmidt of South-
field was among those who
made presentations. "Every-
one was all dressed up and ex-
cited," she recalls.
The girls were given corsages
and served breakfast. In ad-
dition to listening to speakers,
they spent time watching their
parents work.
`The sons were jealous," says
Ms. Schmidt, "so a day was
planned for them, also."
Like AAA, W.B. Doner in-
vited daughters to work last
year and will do the same next
week. The group will begin its
morning with a 9 a.m. break-
fast and orientation, followed
by a full day of structured ac-
tivities.
"You never want the kids to
get bored," explains Pat Simp-
son, the firm's public relations
director.
This year, the Southfield ad-
vertising agency will expand
the day to include boys as well
as girls.
"So many fathers came up to
me and said, 'My son would
have benefited from this,' " Ms.
Simpson explains.
Sarah Schonberg under-
stands that the boys might be
jealous, but she also thinks a
day for girls to visit their par-
ents' workplaces is a good idea.
"Maybe because the job mar-
ket isn't as open for women,"
she suggests. "Maybe because
people are more used to the
men working."
She didn't go to work with

her mom or dad last year, al-
though she does recall talking
about it both in school and at
home.
Her friend, 13 year-old Bryn
Rosenfeld of Birmingham, did
skip school that day. She went
to work with her mother,
Janelle McCammon, manager
of corporate communications
for Motors Insurance Corpora-
tion, a subsidiary of General
Motors.
Bryn accompanied her moth-
er to meetings throughout the
corporation, from the Pontiac
Truck Platform to GM's Tech-
nical Center in Warren and the
company's corporate head-
quarters in downtown Detroit.
She learned about graphic de-
sign, met engineers, and saw
firsthand how her mother
spends her time.
"The day provides an oppor-
tunity for girls not only to see
what (the company) does, but
also to have some hands-on in-
volvement," says Ms. McCam-
mon.
Bryn agrees. "We have ca-
reer days at our school," she
says, but presenters are limit-
ed in what they can demon-
strate away from their jobs.
She thinks Take Our Daugh-
ters to Work Day is a better
idea. "It's a neat way to see
what they really do."
For boys (and girls) who re-
main in school for the day, the
Ms. Foundation has developed
Take Our Daughters to Work
lesson plans. Last year thou-
sands of teachers used the
plans, which explore gender
roles and occupational options.

Take Our Daughters to Work
Day activities, call the Ms.
