    For the first time, two entities, STARBASE Kelly and JBSA-Lackland’s Youth Center, combined forces teaching STARBASE Kelly’s Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics summer camp here June 12.

    "We are so happy to have had the chance to collaborate with the Lackland Youth Center and provide a STEM Camp for their children,” said Kathy Kiolbassa Spalding, STARBASE Kelly director. “Due to COVID-19, we were unable to bring students to STARBASE Kelly, so we took our program to them. The response was great, and we hope to continue this partnership in the future.”

    STARBASE Kelly customarily teaches the summer camp totally on their campus; but this year, a portion of the summer camp was given at the JBSA-Lackland’s Youth Center.

    “Because of COVID-19, we had to take additional safety measures because we’re used to going out doing stuff that has to do with STEM,” said Luqman Abdul Jami, a teacher with the STARBASE Kelly summer camp.
