The 2022 Event
In 2022, Branch hosted the inaugural G.I.R.L. Construction Experience, bringing real-life construction activities and concepts to girls ages 5-18.
Unsure if the community would be receptive to the idea, the event came together in less than 8 weeks, and had over 100 children participate! Kids were able to use hand and power tools, fly drones, use project management software on a scavenger hunt, climb on and operate equipment, use equipment simulators and building virtual reality software, design a bedroom on a computer, and much more.
Parents and kids alike and are excited to come back to the event in 2023 to see what new things they can learn, and have fun while doing it!
