aauw_iii_on_7-08.jpgThe Logan County branch of the American Association of University Women is honoring one young woman with a scholarship to attend Camp GEMS (Girls in engineering, math, and science) at Ohio Northern University.

The scholarship was awarded to Ashley Wilson, daughter of Matt and Shawndel Wilson of East Liberty. Ashley is a seventh-grader from the Ohio Virtual Learning Academy.

The four-day residential camp will be held July 22nd through July 25th on the ONU campus in Ada.

Camp GEMS features hands-on activities in math, science, engineering, and computers. AAUW/Logan County pays for the $250 camp fee, which includes room, board, and all educational materials.

This is the eleventh year AAUW/Logan County has provided a fully paid scholarship to Camp GEMS. A portion of the proceeds from the Benefit Trivia Bee for Education held in March helped fund the scholarship.
