The Tech Trek project – which has gone National – was begun in 1997 as the inspiration of Marie Wolbach, a member of the Palo Alto branch. Week-long camps for rising 7th grade girls are held at 22 different sites around the nation, with eight residential sites in California and also available virtually during each summer. The California camps are a project of AAUW California. Members of our branch have enthusiastically supported the camps for many years. We expect to send 12 girls in July to the local camp, which will be held at Santa Clara University.

Tech Trek features a specially selected faculty, field trips, and a full program of hands-on learning experiences.

Here’s the recently released video about Tech Trek.
