Build, create, and discover! Join the New River Home Builders Association Women in Building Committee for The House That She Built Girl Scout Construction Day, a free, hands-on experience for Brownie and Junior Girl Scouts (grades 2-5). Inspired by The House That She Built story, girls will explore a variety of careers in residential construction through engaging, interactive activities led by women working in the building industry.
Participants will rotate through interactive career stations-including Architect, Framer, Interior Designer, Electrician, Plumber, and more-while completing a Career Passport and working together on a collaborative building challenge. Along the way, they'll meet real women in the skilled trades, explore tools and techniques, and discover how
teamwork and creativity come together to build a home.
Lunch, all activity materials, a special event patch, and a certificate for each girl.
