The Walnut Creek satellite of the Danville-Alamo Branch of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) this year sponsored six seventh-grade girls to attend the Tech Trek Science Camp held at Sonoma State University in June. Three of the girls were from Walnut Creek Intermediate School (WCIS) and the other three from Foothill Middle School (FHMS). They were chosen from nominations made by their 7th grade math and science teachers.
The AAUW California Tech Trek Science Camp for girls started in 1998. It is a weeklong summer science, math and technology camp where volunteers, computer programmers and scientists from different fields expose the students to their fields of expertise through hands-on projects. The girls have the opportunity to explore science, mathematics, and technology in a positive and stimulating environment.
