This year we used the chance to present TidyCity on the Girlsday again. The Girlsday is a popular event in Germany that allows school girls to have a look at professions that are typically persued by men as it is often the case e.g. in the computer science sector. The event shall bolster girls with interest in these topics to further investigate them and might ultimately help with the career choice of the girls.
Today we offered two workshops for playing TidyCity on our campus. In total 17 girls between 13 and 17 participated and played in groups of two or three girls. Below you see some impressions of the day.

With so many girls playing the same mission at once you have to be quick to solve more riddles than the others.
These girls experienced that GPS signals are not always perfect...
Teamwork always helps to solve riddles quickly!
On such a beautiful campus playing TidyCity is even more fun!
