Get ready for a morning of discovery, creativity, and hands-on fun! At Girl Scouts of Greater Iowa’s Incredible Women in Skilled Trades, you’ll explore the exciting world of skilled trades—and meet the amazing women who are building, creating, fixing, designing, and powering our world every day.

From using tools and trying new techniques to meeting incredible women working in trades like carpentry, welding, manufacturing, engineering, and more, this is your chance to step into their work boots and see what it’s really like. You’ll even get to test your own skills and creativity through fun, hands-on activities that show just how much you’re capable of.
