Go to Post The robot competition is the most obvious, visible, and distilled-media-friendly part of the picture...

Girl's FRC Event- Girls' Generation

One of the most rewarding off-season events we've put together took place Nov 13th, 2010...Girls' Generation. Similar to team 433's Girl Power event in PA, this was a FRC scrimmage where only girls are allowed on the drive teams and only girls can work on the robot. Fourteen Oregon and SW Washington teams took part. It was loads of fun and, we hope, will encourage more girls to become active in the robotics and drive team aspects of their teams.

Check out the video and details at http://www.oregonfirst.org/events/girls-generation

I'd encourage more teams around the world to think about hosting such an event. You won't be sorry.

I'd love to read some posts from participants and fans regarding the event and what they liked about it or how the experience made an impact.

Re: Girl's FRC Event- Girls' Generation

I'm so excited to hear about this Event !!!!

I know how fun and exciting Girl POWER was for my team and all the girls that attend.

I'm so glad that girls in Oregon and Washington could have the same experience

Great job 1540 for putting together the scrimmage... The Video looked like everyone had a great time.
