Junior Girl Scout Badge Day

The team worked together with the Society of Women Engineers and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers on Saturday, October 18th to host ninety 4th through 6th graders for a Girl Scout Badge Day on the engineering campus.  Each organization ran activities for the girls to help them earn three badges in one day; we organized the “Car Care” badge.  The girls learned about the benefits of hybrid cars, some routine safety checks for vehicles, how to check tire pressure, how to change a flat tire, and they got a chance to take a look underneath the Moovada!

Thanks to all the Girl Scouts who attended, team members who bravely donated their cars for demonstration, and SWE for all the help organizing the day!
