Re: Girls,Why did you join FIRST???
A mentor realized we had only one girl(who wound up not sticking around anyway), and started asking around at school for any freshman girls interested in technology. My name came up, and he contacted me. It sounded cool, and I wasn't really doing anything over the winter, so I went to a meeting. It almost scared me away, so I brought a friend the next time. She and I are the only girls on the team right now. I love it because I've always liked building things(even though no one in my family seemed to know that until I joined the team), and I love learning more about it. Plus, I love hanging out with the team; they're probably my favorite group of friends now.
