About TRF Camp Build:
TRF Camp Build is a free weeklong day camp for co-ed middle schoolers (current 6th - 8th graders) to introduce them to a potential career in the construction industry. The Rosendin Foundation conducts weeklong camps in Gallatin (TN), Tempe (AZ), and Austin (TX) plus mini-electrical only single day camps in Sherman (TX) and Anaheim (CA). Many students are unaware of the possibility of a rewarding and financially beneficial career in the construction trades or related fields. TRF Camp Build is designed to give students real hands-on experience and provide them the tools to continue to build.
Lessons Learned by campers include:
- Safety/OSHA/personal protective equipment (all camps)
- Tape measure and ruler reading
- Concrete/rebar
- Soldering
- Bending pipe (all camps)
- BIM (all camps)
