Follow along as we share stories from our female staff, junior collaborators, and alumni about why they love being girls who make things with their own two hands. 

Check out the ingenious designs students came up with during our custom one-day workshop for the Piedmont Makers Robotics club!

Since sometime mid-day yesterday, everyone's been buzzing about what the big project reveal will yield. "Can't you tell us tonight before bed so we can think about it all night long?", we heard several times. We do quite like to create a little suspense and anticipation around the project reveal...

After months of anticipation, we have finally arrived at our week of overnight camp, wrapped in the beauty of the Redwoods of the California Coast.  All of our host sites have added something special to the flavor and the project possibilities of our camps, and Westminster Woods does not disappoint!  There's nothing quite like the sense of calm and wonder motivated by a sky-reaching grove of nature's giants.  

Thursday is always a big day at camp full of the "nearly there" challenges that are a part of any big project.  We've accomplished a huge amount already, transforming our site from a stock pile of wood and screws to large contraptions that almost work.  But the difference between almost working and working is often a tremendous amount of work - it's the heart of tinkering.
