Here are more highlights from Southwestern Oklahoma State University's AAUW Tech Trek STEM Camp. This camp consists of hands-on core STEM classes, leadership, teamwork, etiquette, field trips, interviews/mentoring with professional women and so much more.The camp leaders have rebooted the experience as the Southwest Alliance for Girls' Enrichment (SAGE) and will present a new Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) camp in June 2018.

Helpers include instructors, junior counselors and fellow campers.
Seventh grade math or science teachers as well as some principals recommend camp applicants. Along with written applications are interviews. Campers come from all over Oklahoma. [150 campers have applied for the 2018 camp in June so selection for around forty spots is difficult.] The camp offers middle school girls with ability in science and math the opportunity to see and experience new people, places and hands-on career exploration.
N.B.
Leaders of this camp have improved upon the activities and rebranded it the SAGE STEAM Camp. Each camper's family pays $100. The rest of the $1,000 camp fee is earned through fundraising by the SAGE STEAM Camp leaders. If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation for future camp attendees, please see:

Donations can be made to the SWOSU Foundation with a note for SAGE STEAM Camp either online or through the mail.
