Program Information:

Vermont Works for Women is excited to partner with Burlington Technical Center to offer the first-ever Rosie's Girls AVIATION camp this summer! Girls* in grades 7, 8, 9 are eligible to participate. Registration is only open to students in the Burlington School District at this time. Camp runs June 17 - June 20 (Monday - Thursday) from 8:00 AM - 3:30 PM. 

If you are not in the Burlington School District, you are welcome to join the waitlist and will be notified as space becomes available: https://forms.office.com/r/WkZcfVNK62 

This camp is ideal for girls* who are interested in the wide variety of career opportunities in aviation and aerospace. If you've ever wondered how an aircraft works, this experience is for you! No previous experience required.

Camp will begin each day at the BTC Aviation Hangar. Activities will happen at the Hangar, as well as neighboring sites (Heritage Aviation, Beta Technologies, and others) that are all within walking distance. Over the course of the week, campers will get an up close look at different aircraft, meet industry leaders, and gain hands-on experience with basic tools and processes of airplane mechanics like air drills, drill bits, riveting, and safety wiring.

Staff will also guide campers through ice breakers, games and the Rosie’s Girls Power Skills curriculum each day. Activities are designed to expand campers' self-confidence, sense of possibility, and connection with one another. 

NOTE AS OF MARCH 21, 2024: Vermont Works for Women is actively working with partners to create an opportunity for interested campers to experience a short airplane ride. This is optional. A separate waiver is required for campers who choose to participate. If this opportunity is confirmed, all families who have already registered will be notified and this form will be updated with flight information.

*Rosie's Girls welcomes anyone who identifies as a girl regardless of assignment at birth, including non-binary and gender expansive youth who are comfortable in a girl-centered space. Rosie's Girls welcomes youth from diverse backgrounds and also aims to make our programs accessible to economically disadvantaged students.

Important Notes:
  • Each day, campers must bring: lunch, water bottle*, closed-toe shoes, and appropriate clothing for all weather conditions
  • Daily snacks are provided
  • *VWW has work boots available for campers to borrow 
  • Camp slots are limited. If your plans change for any reason and your camper is no longer able to participate, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can give the spot to another child.
