The workshop was officially opened by the Project Manager of the Girl Power clubs, Dr. Liz Odera, who welcomed the guests to Sadili Oval. Dr. Odera laid out the agenda for the year 2010, and what the programme hoped the Girl Power Clubs in the respective schools would achieve.
AGENDA
·         The Patrons of the Girl Power clubs in each school were to be chosen.
·         Registration of the school clubs, where we would collect and record personal information on each student from each school.
·         Initiate a project each term for the girls, where they would be able to meet at least once a week, to discuss topics of importance, which adversely  affect them in society.

·         Choose a sport for each school, to try develop the already existing ones, initiate new ones and encourage the girls to participate.
SPORTS SELECTED:
·         Soccer
·         Basketball
·         Netball
·         Volleyball
·         Lawn Tennis

·         Select a championship day where the girls from the various girl power clubs would have the opportunity to meet, socialize, and compete. The patrons would agree on the dates more convenient for all of them and one final date would be set.

·          Organize a leadership training camp for the Girl Power club Patrons. Proposed dates were 7th and 8th April 2010.

Topics Discussed at the workshop:
·         3 Things that only feel like love.
