Through Odyssey Camps, Meteor Crater Education Alliance launched the Girls2Space camp that invited both middle and high school girls to engage in a week of imagination, engineering and creativity through hands-on experiments, outdoor exploration and creative challenges.
The free camp experience was designed to inspire young girls through hands-on science experiences, exploration and direct connections with women leaders in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
