Get ready for takeoff-Camp Sikorsky is back and better than ever! At this high-energy, hands-on weekend, Girl Scouts will dive into real-world STEM experiences with professionals from one of the world's leading aerospace companies. With one night of tent camping, Girl Scouts will explore engineering, aviation, public speaking, and emergency response alongside Sikorsky Aircraft engineers and executives, all while building leadership skills and making new friends from across the state.
Participate in two interactive STEM, Life Skills, and
Entrepreneurship workshops led by Sikorsky professionals-from
soldering circuits to exploring eco-solutions and robotics.
Connect with role models during a career panel featuring women and men
working in STEM and aviation fields.
Experience tent camping
with your troop or guardian, sharing meals, memories, and new
perspectives with other Girl Scouts.
💡 Badge Alignment: Workshops support progress toward badges including (but not limited to) Space Science, First Aid, Cybersecurity, Eco Advocate, and Robotics (Cadette, Senior, and Ambassador levels). Workshop selection is first-come, first-served.
