From robotstockphilly at gmail.com Sat Jul 6 10:32:58 2019 From: robotstockphilly at gmail.com (Robotstock Philly) Date: Sat, 6 Jul 2019 13:32:58 -0400 Subject: [Philadelphia-pm] Robotstock STEM Expo Message-ID: Be our guest! The first FIRST robotics festival in the Philadelphia area! Join us for a free summer event featuring interactive robots, hands on science experiments, Maker?s Row, Girls in STEM Expo, and fun for all ages! Your organization is invited to be our guest at the event. We only ask that you bring an interactive activity or exhibit to the event. Robotstock will be held at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks, PA, just minutes from Philadelphia, New Jersey, and Delaware on August 24th and 25th. This event is the first of its kind featuring a full basketball court size competition field with 120lb robots demonstrating their skills and competing. The free event also features a large maker space, LEGO robotics, hands on science experiments, and even more robots! The event will also feature a Girls in STEM Expo which will highlight successful women in engineering, science, math, and various technology fields. Girls are greatly underrepresented in STEM and this Expo will feature role models and avenues to success of interest to all families, but especially young women. Area Girl Scouts of all ages are invited to participate, with attendance expected in the hundreds, to complete badge requirements and enjoy the event. FIRST Robotics, a global robotics program and competition, is the spotlight of the event. Called, ?The Sport For The Mind,? this program is for students in grades K through 12. Hundreds of students who are already engaged in this program will be attending the event to showcase their robots and projects. This free event is positioned to introduce families to FIRST robotics, STEM programs, organizations, and opportunities for young women. Based on similar events, none of which had free admission, we expect approximately 8,000 attendees over the course of the weekend. These attendees will be eager to engage their children and teenagers in educational activities, learning opportunities, and organizations who work with young women. We are specifically wondering if you or anyone from the Philadelphia Perl Mongers are interested in attending as a vendor or a speaker. We also have a Maker Row and would love to showcase anyone that has projects that they would like to show off. We look forward to your participation!
