Tech Trek News By Lana Widman
The Tech Trek Committee is in full swing getting ready for this year’s Tech Trek camps.
Tech Trek will be sending six girls to the Davis Camp and three girls to the Virtual Camp. The Davis Camp will be held July 13 – 19 and the Virtual camp is July 20 – 25. Our campers will provide members with an account of their experiences during the September branch meeting. To learn more about what happens at Tech Trek, please check out the Tech Trek website.
The Tech Trek website has been revamped, and has a lot of great information and photos. Access the site by clicking <here>.
