Girls Project at every regional

[JaneYoung]

Hi Dr. Cameron and Mabel,

I remember visiting the team in the pits last year and both of you talking a little bit about this project. If I recall, you were very excited about the idea and the project was still in development stages, figuring out how you were going to implement it. Sounds like it's good to go and now you need some wonderful volunteers to help you. I don't know too much about it but I know enough to think that those who put their hands up, get involved, and help you guys out, will have an eye-opening and wonderful experience.

As always, I wish FRC 842 the best, and I'm looking forward to a visit at the Championship. I can't wait to see what you are going to do in the Hall of Fame.

Jane

What information is being collected?

Is the info something that can be collected during team scouting in the pit, or during match scouting in the stands? We have dedicated students that do both of these activities. If the collection could be tailored to fit in one of these activities, but not add significantly to the effort in those activities, we would consider adding it in to the info we collect on teams during those activities.

[N7UJJ]

It is collected in the pits. It should only take about a half hour.
Once Thursday afternoon
Once Friday morning, again Friday afternoon
Once Saturday morning.

Each run requires about a 5-20 second stop at each pit. It would be difficult to do while scouting, I think.

I'm trying not to disclose too much because it could influence the results. Send my your email address at N7UJJ@cox.net and I'll send you the details if you are interested.

I'm having trouble understanding what exactly you are trying to figure out.
Are you trying to get an idea of the involvement of women in FIRST by spending a total of 15 seconds to 1 minute at each pit over the course of three days?

15 seconds to 1 minute at each pit 4 times during the event. It works out pretty well. If there are 60 teams, that's an hour or less each time. It is actually kind of interesting to do.

Rolling Thunder (1511) will cover the Finger Lakes Regional (week 2) and the Chesapeake Regional (week 4). Let us know what to do!

[wendymom]

Bacon can take Florida if you need us to. Just let me know what to do

Team 2415 is going to Peachtree and Palmetto. We can definitely help at Peachtree, and probably at Palmetto too...I'll talk to my coaches and team, but for now, count us in!

[N7UJJ]

I have one team that is willing to do Peachtree. You are the first to volunteer for Palmetto.

Can you email me at N7UJJ@cox.net and I'll send details

Thanks,

Allan
