STEAM Education - Science, Technology, Engineering

STEAM Education - Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, & Mathematics is a key focus area here at the BGCLBC. Studies show that careers in STEM are projected to grow by nearly 11% from 2022 to 2032, compared to just 2.3% for non-stem jobs. STEM occupations also earned a median annual salary more than double that of non-stem occupations in 2022. That’s why the BGCLBC provides 21st century STEAM education to members of all ages during our after school and summer programs!

“WOW” was a common expression heard throughout

“WOW” was a common expression heard throughout the evening last night, during our 75th Anniversary Program Showcase. Our staff and members did a tremendous job showcasing our programs, to give guests just a glimpse into what our programs look like. From the outstanding stem projects, to the creative artwork, to the culinary delights, and most importantly, to the smiles on our members faces…. That’s what our programs look like. Here are some highlights from last nights event! Our sincerest thanks to all those who came out!
