recently AJ and his classmates, specifically his engineering team :), were selected to have their constructed Popsicle-stick-bridge entered in a competition at the local mall. the purpose was to have bridges from all over the county, designed by kids in elementary school, tested for their structural ability to withstand pressure and a constant force or pull applied.
AJ's whole group showed up that Saturday morning to watch the testing unfold (although one boy is missing from the picture). their bridge finished eighth overall, out of many others (wish i knew how many entries were in his category...oops). it was impressive, and hopefully it planted a few seeds in young boys who may just pursue engineering further one day!
awesome job guys! :)
