Brownie and Junior Girl Scouts from Los Alamos and White Rock gathered Saturday, Oct. 19 to earn their Programming Robots Badge by learning some basics about circuitry, programming and robotics. The girls practiced circuitry on littleBits and Cubelets electronics kits and practiced programming with Dash Robots. They ended the event with a Robot Dance Party, choreographed and programmed by the Brownies and Juniors. Local Girl Scouts would like to thank the Girl Scouts of New Mexico Trails Council for bringing the event to the Hill. Anyone interested in Girl Scouts can contact Grace Wiele, gwiele@nmgirlscouts.org, for more information. Photo by Jeanine Wood
