Robotics Camp

What is Robotics Camp?

An awesome, week-long summer robotics camp.


Throughout the week, the girls will get the chance to build a robot and learn to code their bot, as well as learn about some of the administrative jobs associated with being on a robotics team.


Camp is planned and organized by the Techalongs (FTC Team 17062), a Girl Scout FIRST Tech Challenge robotics team. Camp activities are led by volunteer Cadette, Senior, and Ambassador Girl Scouts that are part of the team and supervised by adult volunteers. 


When?

We have scheduled camp for June 9th-13th (Monday-Friday), 12:30- 3:30 pm daily. Girls can be dropped off starting at 12:15 pm each day so that their camp day can start promptly at 12:30 pm.


Where?

Notre Dame Preparatory 

9701 E Bell Rd

Scottsdale, AZ  85260


Who Can Attend?

Day Camp is limited to 25 campers who have just completed 5th-8th grade in May. Our staff will be 8 older girl volunteers (grades 7+) and at least 3 adult volunteers (18+ years). 


**Girls must have current membership with Girl Scouts.** 


Girls need not join a troop (although we are happy to assist you in finding a permanent Girl Scout home).  We will send you information about how to secure membership after you register for camp.



What is the Cost?

$100 per girl


There will be no refunds or partial refunds for any reason except for camp cancellation. 


All registrations, fees, and paperwork need to be remitted by June 1st to ensure your daughter has a spot at camp. We will cancel unpaid registrations on that date along with any registrations with missing paperwork.


How Do I Register?

Register your campers here.



What Does my Girl Scout Need to Bring?

Everyone should bring a bottle of water each day. Girls will also need a laptop; please let us know if your daughter does not have a laptop available for her use. We have a limited number of laptops that we can loan out.


Girls need to wear closed-toed shoes and have their hair tied up each day.


Drop Off, Pick Up, and Safety

We will strive to meet every Girl Scout safety recommendation.  All girls must be signed in and out by a parent/guardian each day.  If she is going home with someone else, we must receive a note from the parent.  Please pick up your camper on time.  No supervision will be provided before 12:15 or after 3:45 pm.
