Girl Scouts Day for High School Girls

This past weekend SWE was able to help out with Girl Scouts Day for High School Girls. SWE members helped individual girls with making their own E-textile projects. Here are some pictures with their project and some of the volunteers! :)

Next Girl Scout Day is April 26th. We will also be helping girls with projects and promote women engineering in the local community!
