Girls will rotate through hands-on
activity stations learning about
different types of engineering.
They’ll build their own rolling toys
to take home, design an egg bungee
jump, make an electrical circuit
booklet to share with younger girls,
design a Rube Goldberg machine to
crush cans, create an engineering
collage, and build a challenging paper
tower. Since the stations are run by
engineering and science collegians,
they can address any questions
the girls (or you) may have on what
courses to take for these careers.
Run and sponsored by the Society of
Women Engineers (SWE); girls will
take home the SWE patch. Hear A Story! Change a Story! Tell a
Story! Better World for Girls! Brownies
will read a story and look for clues
about a problem that needs fixing. They
will think of solutions and discover
how to work as a team to solve a
problem. Then it’s time to rewrite
the story to create a happy ending.
Through games and activities, the girls
will develop confidence by seeing
how they can have an impact on their
world. Storywalker, Wendy Fachon,
will provide an enriching experience
and bring her love of storytelling to the
program. The Journey activities and
materials are all included in the per girl
price. (Journey award is not included.)
