we lost a lot of girls

If anyone went to Philly regionals last year you might remember the diablo girls. They were raising money by selling hugs and kisses. they actually made $83.52 from that. anyway we had 9-10 girls but after graduation we only had 1. we did get 3-4 newbies but that isnt really enough to make up for our losses.

Re: we lost a lot of girls

If I were a girl, I would definately be in FIRST. There are mostly guys in FIRST, so you have many options....

Re: Why girls ARE joining our team...

Our big problem is not that their arent girls (we have like 15) but that few of them do technical work (like 5). We actually have people join to be with the girls and don't do any work!

Re: Why girls ARE joining our team...

Why?? thats the question! Well, just because we're girls doesn't mean we can do things like boys do. And, just because boy's are boy's doesn't mean they can do things girls do. Thats true. =D

Re: Why girls ARE joining our team...

im on a california all girls team. we are all girls and im very proud of that fact. i personally am what you might call the cheerleader of the team. i run spirit and most people assume im a huge ditz and cant actually do anything involving the robot. well fyi im not just head of spirit. i also head programming and strategy so im well rounded. our team is full of well rounded girls who represent first on many levels.

Re: we lost a lot of girls

Considering that our team is an all-girls team, we DO have more girls than boys. Boys = our mentors and our mascot. Hmm...
