Powell Foundation & Coleman Group Supports GapBuster

The Black Diamond Engineering and the All Star Engineers, two of GapBuster’s student engineering teams presented their model car projects to Mrs. Coleman. These projects are the result of their hard work and knowledge gained at the 2014 S.T.E.A.M Camp. Both teams plan to race their cars in Ten80 Race Car Challenge. The Coleman Group congratulates their enterprising students and wishes them continued success as they develop into “Scholars for the Future”.
