Fall 2021 Inspire Discovery
Lauren Kornegay-Dollar and Brooke Stochl, Girl Scout Robotics Program Managers, help teams get started and stay connected with them to ensure robotics teams are learning and advancing through the program. Meet Our Robotics Program Managers
We are proud of all of our Robotics teams and the fearless team members who put their leadership education to the test with each robotics masterpiece they create. The FIRST LEGO League (grades 4-8) project challenges are guided by a real- world, scientific theme. The 2019-2020 theme of City Shaper challenged its players to work together to address architectural designs that could improve the welfare of the immediate community. Team Robo Girls took on the issues of safety in their parks in the evening. Robo Girls researched glow-in-the- dark paint that can be applied to running/walking trails allowing for improved visibility. The team has recently submitted a proposal to their City Council for the implementation of this paint.
Q: What you love about building the next generation of female leaders? A: I love that the girls I work with will grow up Lauren KornegayDollar
knowing they are capable, that they can problem- solve, code and give presentations with the best of them. Q: What is your favorite program and why? A: Robotics Showcase! I love seeing the robotics girls get to share their team experiences with other Girl Scouts and their families.

Q: Why do you choose Girl Scouts?
A: I choose Girl Scouts because I want to help the next generation of female leaders develop important skills while still having fun along the way.
Q: What are you excited about this fall? A: I’m looking forward to bringing robotics to even more girls. I’ll be kicking off my first robotics season as a Program Manager and I’m really excited to work with all of my teams and coaches. Plus, we are hosting new girl programs to offer more designing, building and programming robot opportunities for Girl Scouts!
