September Branch Meeting

September Branch Meeting — Tech Trek Celebration Dinner

It is the 25th Anniversary of Tech Trek! The first camp was held at the Stanford University campus in 1998, and was called Science, Math, and Computer Camp. It was the brainchild of Marie Wolbach. Hear from someone who was there, Elese Polk. Elese will be our guest speaker. She was Napa County’s first Tech Trekker! Learn what she is doing now. (Hint: it involves technology!)  This will be a great celebration!
