We have received approval to use GM grant funds for event registration fees for Bots and Badges. Please make the event $0.00 for Girl Scouts, tagalongs, and adults. The updated event description should read as follows:
Get ready for a day of building, coding, and discovery at one of the region's premier robotics facilities! Girl Scouts will explore how robots are designed, built, and programmed through hands-on activities that bring STEAM to life. From engineering challenges and robot construction to introductory coding concepts, you'll discover how creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving come together to make robots work.
Throughout the day, you'll learn how engineers use design thinking to solve real-world problems, test ideas, and improve their creations. You'll also get a behind-the-scenes look at a working robotics program and see how technology, innovation, and collaboration play a role in the exciting world of competitive robotics. This experience will also include a demonstration of a competition-ready robot, giving Girl Scouts an up-close look at the advanced engineering that powers these machines.
We're excited to partner with Strike Zone Robotics for this event. Members of the team will share their experiences in competitive robotics and provide insight into what it takes to bring a robot from concept to competition. Girl Scouts will have the opportunity to meet robotics mentors, learn about teamwork and innovation, and explore the many pathways that robotics can open for future learning and careers.
This event takes place at a premier robotics and innovation center that serves as a learning hub focused on collaboration and preparing students for success in an ever-changing world. The facility brings together technology, hands-on learning, and problem-solving in a way that encourages students to develop academic and social skills while exploring their interests and talents. It's the perfect environment for Girl Scouts to see how STEAM learning extends beyond the classroom and into real-world applications.
