Our booth- a car for the car care workshops and dexterity boxes.

These boxes are for the dexterity test. Each box contained 3 bolts and 6 nuts. The test is to blindly put together the 3 nuts that fit the 3 bolts. All ages could give it a try, and we timed those who wanted to compete for the best time.

As they completed the nut bolt combination, they would put it on top of the box
Some of the younger/ shorter girls had a hard time reaching into the boxes, so they just closed their eyes to give it a try.
For the older girls...
Tonia lead the car care workshop for Girl Scout Cadettes. She brought along a drill they could use to loosen the bolts of the air filter housing.
Giving girls the opportunity to use real tools on a real car can be very empowering.
The Cadettes took turns with the drill, loosening the air filter housing.

Cameron Won! Best time: 21 Seconds
We imagine Cameron was dragged to this event for girls - but didn't regret it after he won the prize. He tried and tried until he had the fastest time at the dexterity test.
