SolarQuestTM 98	Tour de Sol Adventure Quest

Beverly Elementary School Poster Contest

The Beverly Elementary School is getting a head start teaching kids at an early age the benefits and necessity of alternative energy. Mrs. Donohue, a science teacher at the school, has been working with the second and third graders to design their own alternatively powered vehicles and alternative energy posters.

The kids were presented with awards for their creations, at the restart ceremonies in Princeton New Jersey. Second grader Gregory Flosser said, “I would like to make a solar car and drive it in the race someday!” and Sarah Myers, who designed a wind powered car, said that the most exciting part was “to be creative with our projects.” The kids spent a week on these projects; they made several practice designs which culminated in colorful posters of their inventions.
