SUMMARY: Sky Dwellers Aerospace Engineering is encouraging young people to pursue STEM careers through a new summer camp. Recent Hancock High School graduate Xander McGarity joined the program to enhance his learning skills and found a strong interest in aerodynamics, particularly learning about the solar-powered, self-controlling Sky Dweller aircraft. Along with peers, he is learning basic engineering at Pearl River Community College and building wooden gliders. The program is supported by a small business grant from the Hancock County Chamber of Commerce. Students are also creating solar-powered mobile phone chargers, providing practical knowledge. McGarity aims for an internship and plans to apply his skills at the US Naval Academy.
