Ready, set, race! In this hands-on workshop hosted by Food + Farm Exploration Center in Plover, WI, girls will discover how engineers use creativity and problem-solving to design machines that move. Girl Scouts will build and test their own balloon-powered cars while exploring the science of forces, motion, friction, and energy and how they apply to agricultural machines. Through fun design challenges and teamwork, girls will improve their vehicles, learn from their results, and earn their Mechanical Engineering: Balloon Car Badge. No prior engineering experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to experiment! Girl Scouts will earn and receive the Mechanical Engineering Balloon Car Badge. Cost: $25/girl,$8/adult
