IndyRAGE is a unique event as it ties the FIRST competition together with an eventfocused on girls. Drive teams must be all female. Special speakers and events will allowparticipants to ask questions and get motivated about engineering and other STEMfields. Girls are encouraged to try new roles at this event.Pit crews are encouraged to be all-female. We recognize this as a significant challengeto teams, so this is not a requirement. Teams are encouraged to recruit new mentors forthis event!We encourage the whole team to come and support all of their team members.
*Update Oct 2024*
We will not be able to host Indy RAGE this year. We hope to bring this amazing event back in the future. Stay tuned!
