Robogals Adelaide has a new executive committee! Say hello to Lily Guo, Anna Koefer, Anastasia Fragoulis, Saxon Douglass, Peta Johannsen and Justina Andrews. Contact details for each can be found here. We have some big shoes to fill after the last two years of success under the watchful eye of Sarah Cirillo, but are looking forward to the coming months and are hatching a few plans already.

The 2011 SINE ran over 24^th-26^th September hosted in our home city of Adelaide was a huge success, check out the photos to see just a few of the things we got up to. It was great to meet all the exec from the other chapters, and had a blast showing them around our beautiful city. Our very own Adelaide chapter won the award - "Biggest Impact - Honourable Mention", big claps all 'round ladies and gents! This was for the amount of workshops that we ran during the year, teaching robotics to both brand new schools and students as well as recurring workshops which involved more in depth programs.

Robogals Adelaide will be selling pancakes on campus on the first Tuesday back of term 4, 11^th October. Come buy a pancake and help us raise some money so we can do some cool stuff in schools, communities, and for our fantastic volunteers. We'll also be making an appearance at the term 4 AUES barbeque on Friday the 14^th October. Rumours are there may be a bouncy castle, so make sure you can come along and say hello! When more information is available about these events it will be posted to the events page.

Finally, a new Robogals Adelaide Facebook page has been created. The page will mostly be used to keep fans updated about what we've been up to and informing people about future events and opportunities. Go ahead and like us, as this will likely be the go-to for the most update information about our organization. See you soon!

It's just one week until the beginning of The University of Adelaide's Orientation Week 2011. We here at Robogals Adelaide will be using this opportunity to recruit volunteers for the year ahead,  engaging with some of the new students and telling people what we're all about. As always we're looking forward to new faces and fresh perspectives and ideas.
