Ignite curiosity. Build skills. Shape the future.
Enroll your child in a camp where STEM meets creativity, leadership, and global citizenship! Designed for kids aged 6–12, our Innovation & Leadership Camp blends cutting-edge technology with hands-on projects to inspire tomorrow’s problem-solvers.
Campers explore drones, robotics, 3D printing, along with learning the fundamentals while learning teamwork, ethical innovation, and leadership skills. From coding drones for missions to printing prosthetic hands for children in need (via E-Nable), every activity connects learning to real-world impact.
One- or two-week sessions: July 14–25, 2025. Find more information and register at https://tinyurl.com/techtrekcamp.
To all the parents of current kindergarten students:
To introduce myself, my name is Heather Lockrow, and I'm the Girl Scout Troop leader for Daisy Troop 63349 in Newton. I'm writing because our Troop is still on the smaller side (we just had our first meeting in February), and we have plenty of room to grow! I would love to add additional girls to our Troop.
In terms of logistics, our Troop meets approximately two Thursday evenings a month, from 5:30-6:30, in Auburndale. There are also potentially some other events/meetings that we will have off site, but this is roughly what you'd plan on in terms of time commitment.
To answer the two big questions you might have:
To sign up your daughter, go to the Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts website, and make sure to register for Troop 63349. Or, contact me for help!
We are not going to sell cookies this year, largely due to timing...and I need to recruit someone ELSE to be cookie parent next year :)
If you have any additional questions, please reach out to me at hlockrow@gmail.com, or 716-982-1195.
