Robotics Open House

DarcyLeave a comment

Join us on Thursday, May 8, 4:30pm-6:30pm to learn more about the Girl Scout Robotics Troop. All girls are welcome. New robotics teams for girls in grades 4-8 will be forming in August 2025.

Girls who are not currently registered in a Girl Scout Troop will be asked to join the Special Interest Robotics Troop through Girl Scouts of Northern California. If girls are interested in also joining a traditional troop, we can help you with that too! Scholarships for membership registration are always available. Register here for the Open House, or just drop in between 4:30pm-6:30pm.

Are you an adult that is interested in helping to guide girls in learning about Robotics? We can always use new coaches to help facilitate a team. Adult volunteers will be asked to register as a member of Girl Scouts of Northern California and complete a background check (fingerprint method). Additional online training for volunteers will be required. You don’t need to be an engineer or have a background in science, just a love of learning and be willing to encourage the girls to research solutions. Want to know more about coaching with VEX? Visit the VEX website and learn more about VEX IQ (Grades 4-6) and VEX V5 (Grades 7-8): Becoming a VEX Coach

Contact Darcy at SonomaGirlScouts@gmail.com if you have more questions.

Prepare your girl for a lifetime of leadership

When they’re advocating for our communities, discovering the outdoors, exploring science and technology, or powering new adventures, Girl Scouts discover they can achieve anything!

Along the way, she’ll gain important skills in four areas that form the foundation of the Girl Scout Leadership Experience:

While she may be exposed to these subjects at school, in other youth programs, or even on her own, at Girl Scouts she’ll experience them in a unique way that puts her on a path to a lifetime of leadership, adventure, and success. And because our program is girl-led, girls decide what they’ll do, together.
Girl-led, expert-approved, and volunteer-supported, Girl Scouts helps girls discover their strengths and change the world.
Contact us now about new troops that are forming for the Fall 2018. Interested in starting a new troop?  It’s easy, all of the training is available online and you’ll build some amazing memories with your daughter and her friends.
