Re: Robotics Participation Patch for Girl Scouts who participate in ANY FIRST event!
 

OOH!! OOH!! Get me one, too!! :D

This is great - a way to tie Girl Scouts and robotics together, two things that I am completely dedicated to! (and who knows, maybe this will help get more girls involved!!)

Thanks to all who made this happen! It's AWESOME!

Awesome!

As a leader of three Girl Scout troops and coach for a second year team, I am so excited that GSUSA has partnered with FIRST and wants to see girls encouraged in engineering. None of my girls are on robotics teams, but I have high hopes for the younger ones to coming up to the high school in a few years (or as soon as we get FLL started!). YES!

This new patch is really funny. I got the Build A Better Future patch for doing Robotics, but now that there is a patch specifically for Robotics... Oh, wow. I guess I'll just have to float away in a pool of happiness now, since I'm currently working on a Gold Award project getting started an FLL at my local middle school. I just amazes me how intertwined Robotics and Girl Scouts can be... Also, it's probably coincidence, but not counting this year's recruits, all but one of the girls on our team are from my troop. It's awesome!
