GEE Volunteers needed!

Calling all volunteers!


The Society of Women in Engineering (SWE) Detroit Section is sponsoring their annual Girls' Engineering Exploration (GEE) Day on Saturday, March 17, 2018 and needs your help!

This full-day of interactive workshops and demonstrations will be held at the Michigan Science Center and aims to expose 4th-6th grade girls to various fields of engineering and technology.

There are two ways you can support:

1. Mentor: The girls will be divided into groups of 4-5 to facilitate their engagement as well as maximize their workshop experience. Each GEE Mentor is responsible for monitoring their group throughout the day in addition to encouraging participation and enthusiasm as the girls learn about engineering. Mentors must be available for the full day from 8AM - 4PM.

2. Flex volunteer: Flex volunteers support and maintain the GEE event flow throughout the day. They help with registration check-in, coat check, lunch distribution, activity support, room set-up/break-down, and more.  Flex volunteers can choose to be present for any of the three time slots: the full day (8AM - 4PM), morning (8AM - 12PM), or afternoon (12PM - 4PM).

If you are interested in volunteering for either of these positions, please fill out this Google form by Sunday, February 25
