Girl Scout and Friends Day Canceled Due to Hurricane Helene
Dear PEER WISE Community,
In light of the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our upcoming Girl Scout and Friends Day event. The safety and well-being of our community, students, and their families remain our top priority during this challenging time.
We know how much excitement surrounded this event, and we share in the disappointment of not being able to come together as planned. However, we are committed to rescheduling once conditions allow us to safely gather and celebrate.
Please stay tuned for updates on future events. In the meantime, we send our heartfelt support to all those affected by the storm and hope you are safe and secure with your loved ones.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team at [contact info]. Thank you for your understanding.
Stay safe,
The PEER WISE Team
This annual event is a collaboration with the Girls Scouts of South Carolina Mountains to Midlands and the Women in Science and Engineering Program (WISE). Last year's theme, "Science for a Better Tomorrow," inspired young minds to explore the possibilities of STEM. This year, we invite students to take the lead with "STEM Expedition: Engineer Your Own Adventure." Our sessions empower young explorers to embark on their unique STEM journeys and engineer their futures—all at no cost!
“Kids have the power to create their own adventures with STEM. By diving into science, technology, engineering, and math, they can design green buildings, develop fuel-efficient cars, and even contribute to life-saving vaccines. Through STEM Expeditions, young explorers can turn dreams into reality and make the impossible possible. Let’s inspire the next generation to engineer their own adventures and shape a better tomorrow!” — Discover E
