IndyRAGE
Raising Awareness for Girls in Engineering
IndyRAGE is a unique event as it ties the FIRST competition together with an event
focused on girls. Drive teams must be all female. Special speakers and events will allow
participants to ask questions and get motivated about engineering and other STEM
fields. Girls are encouraged to try new roles at this event.
Pit crews are encouraged to be all-female. We recognize this as a significant challenge
to teams, so this is not a requirement. Teams are encouraged to recruit new mentors for
this event!
We encourage the whole team to come and support all of their team members.
IndyRAGE General Information:
October 21 at Perry Meridian High School
Entry: $125, includes lunch for team members
Event: Limited to 24 Teams.
Teams may register for 2 robots, and a multiple entry decision will be made by October
13.
Event SCHEDULE is below.

Volunteers
Our goal is have a very high percentage of female volunteers in every role. For some
roles, due to the experience required, this may not be possible. In those specific cases,
we will have an experienced volunteer provide coaching and training for a female
interested in learning those roles. Follow the link above for volunteer opportunities.
Our mission is to empower girls to try something new during this event.
