Our Branch has sent 52 girls to Tech Trek.

A rich and memorable experience awaits students who are chosen to participate in Tech Trek.
Tech Trek is a week-long residential math/science camp for girls entering the eighth grade, usually at Stanford. Our branch sponsors several girls each year and many have gone on to pursue science courses.
In 2007, a record number of 620 California students was chosen to attend this gratifying experience. This year technology instruction will increase due to a grant received to purchase laptops to use on campus.
AAUW California's Tech Trek Science Camp for girls expanded from six to seven weeks in 2008. To accommodate the number of girls receiving scholarships from AAUW branches, two Tech Trek camps will be held in successive weeks at Stanford University.
This year, 2009, our six branch scholarship recipients have been chosen to attend Tech Trek. The middle schools represented are Springview, Glen Edwards, Eich, Twelve Bridges, Silverado and Buljan.
Each of the girls completed their background information on math or science projects on forms sent from State Tech Trek coordinators.
The $750.00 scholarships are awarded on potential and leadership qualities, not financial need.
The girls selected to attend this year’s Math, Science, and Technology Camp are:
Madison Cooper, Kingkarn Chanontree, Reva Peer, Daphne Skordas, Sarina Pera ,and Rowan Vining.
