"I'm surprised how many girls are here," said Lexi Reed, a 5th grader. There were around 1,500 of them. The goal was to get them all interested in careers in STEAM. "We don't have many female leaders in, in these disciplines it's our job to provide resources to teachers and students for them to learn of all the options they have," said Carola McCullough, the President-Elect of Women's Energy Network of Greater Oklahoma. "There's Science Technology Engineering Arts and Math in everything you can't separate them," said Sherry Marshall," The president/CEO of John E Kirkpatrick. "So few girls recognize what they love and what they do are a STEAM career." These girls realized that through hands-on activities. "I get to learn about new experiments and stuff," said Reed. They learned formulating makeup is actually chemical engineering. They attended a panel with professionals in the medical field, oil field, and even News 4 Meteorologist Emily Sutton about the weather above it all. "We start high up in the atmosphere with the jet stream, then make your way down to the mid-levels of the atmosphere with the vorticity spin," said Sutton.

These women in STEAM hoped the girls were open to whatever forces drew them near and got their wheels spinning. "We're just highlighting all the different options so they can say, 'Oh I can do that!'" said Marshall. The Women's Energy Network of Greater Oklahoma told News 4 they raised enough money last year to help Science Museum Oklahoma put this event together.
