Founded in 2015, RARE PETRO is designed to be the future of oil & gas technical firms. One of the company’s main missions is to work towards modernizing the industry by using and leveraging technology to drive efficiency and improvement! With the recent downturn in the industry NOW is the time to THINK DIFFERENT – THINK EFFICIENT! What about creating the correct tools on modern mobile computing, communication and interface devices to accomplish that goal? Why re-invent the wheel when you can just put your ideas in the modern vehicle and get unprecedented capabilities!

This is the second year that International Women’s Day has been celebrated in Jefferson County, Colorado, and the City of Golden will this year proclaim March 8 as Women’s Day. In many countries around the world, this is a day when women are recognized for their achievements without regard to divisions, whether national, ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic or political. International Women’s Day first emerged at the turn of the twentieth century in North America and across Europe and the first time it was observed nationally in the U.S. was in 1909. The Charter of the United Nations, signed in 1945, was the first international agreement to affirm the principle of equality between women and men.
STEM Contest
The Golden Library, which has an active STEM girls program, is holding a contest for girls in grades 5 through 8. Colorado School of Mines Female Students (via DECTech) will be judging the contest.
