Forward Together: Ponca City Development Authority
ALL THINGS GIRL POWER!....... this week. Girl Power! Camp happened all week long. 13 young women, of the 7th and 8th grade variety, participated in some interesting science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) activities so as to better understand their employment options right here in Ponca City, as they navigate the fun and interesting waters of secondary education. Because, let's face it; you can't want to be a fireman forever. Or can you? STEM can be showcased in many different ways: Chemistry, fabrication, welding, electronics, 3D design, CNC programming, carpentry and more. These campers are engineer, designing, welding, inventor girl bosses in the making; and staff had a blast watching them navigate the STEM world. Extra time was given for trial and error and many times the girls would get frustrated and want to give up, and their friends were able to encourage - show changes and help re-engineer the projects.  We do love collaborative efforts here at PCDA.  With these girls in our future - it is looking bright. We might have to wear shades!

Check out some of the projects completed this week. We love this kind of stuff, so there will be more pictures in the coming weeks. Keep reading to find out more information on Government Contracting opportunities, workforce recruitment training tricks and tips and what's happening Ponca City style in the coming weeks.
