Thoughts on Bloomfield Girls Robotics Competition

[Ed Law]

Hi,

The Bloomfield Girls Robotics Competition is over. I want to thank all the volunteers who made this possible and to team 469, 33 and 68 for co-hosting this event. Quite a few teams created special team shirts for the girls just for this event. I wish we had thought of that. It was a lot of fun. We also had about a hundred girl scouts who came to see the FRC competition as well as FTC and FLL demonstrations. Judging from the smile on their face, I think they had a good time. I think the high school girls were great role models for these young girls.

I would like to congratulate Arti Javeri for winning the Female Mentor of the Year award and Marjie Jenkins for winning the Outstanding Volunteer award.

For the teams that attended, would you mind sharing how your team felt about this event? Did it turn out to be what you expected? I would also like to know how the girls think about it. Were they glad they attended? Would your team attend this event next year?
