Whereas, held in Detroit, Michigan, the competition hosted more than five hundred students from all over the world as contestants. Cedar Grove Elementary's team consisted of fifth graders Olivia Cabaniss, Taylor Berry, and Chloe Braynon, who were proudly accompanied by teacher Kristy Smith and administrators Kristie Finley and Jeffrey Simpson; and
Whereas, sponsored this year by Johnson Controls, Bosch, Kia, TRW, Michigan Economic Development Corporation, Honda, and Henkel, the JetToy Challenge requires engineering design teams to compete in distance, accuracy, weight carrying, and timed events; and
