COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Widefield School District 3 is hosting a “Weld Like A Girl,” event for girls ages 8-15.
During the event, the girls will use MIG Welds to create a horseshoe heart.
They will also have the opportunity to inspect welds and talk to industry experts about what it’s like to have a career in welding and welding inspection.
The event wants to help encourage girls to pursue a career in a field that is not traditionally pursued by women.
“Weld Like A Girl,” will have two sessions, both on Feb. 3., one from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and the other from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Only 20 spots will be available per session.
The event will be hosted at the Manufacturing Industry Learning Lab in Colorado Springs.
