• We agree to return all team equipment to Girl Scouts upon completion of the program, if we do not plan to
continue in robotics, or we move to another level.
• We agree to keep equipment clean and in good condition for the duration of the program and to use it only
in the manner in which it is intended for this program. Kit pieces must be organized separately and
returned to Girl Scouts in an organized fashion.
• We understand our team will be asked to volunteer at promotional events Girl Scouts hosts, and we are
willing to help out as much as we can.
• We understand that the full cost of participation for our Robotics Team is $395. This price includes
registration fees, equipment and other team materials. Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri, with generous
support, is covering 60% of the team’s expenses ($237).
• We agree to pay 40% of the cost ($158) by August 3rd, 2020 for our team to participate. Our team
can participate in approved money earning activities, such as the Girl Scout Cookie Program, to help raise
funds for the team. Activity scholarships are available if there is a need. Please see attached form.
