Bureau County food pantries got a boost this weekend through the 22nd annual Stamp Out Hunger food collections sponsored around the county.
The annual Stamp Out Hunger drive is a joint effort between the U.S. Postal Service, the National Association of Letter Carriers, which handles urban delivery, the National Rural Letter Carriers Association and the Campbell Soup com-pany.
On Monday, Princ-eton Postmaster Shan-non Mattingly said Sat-urday’s collection for Princeton and its rural carriers was a record-breaking one, with 12,735 pounds of items collected for the Bureau County Food Pantry in Princeton.
“We are all so pleased with the generosity of the community. This is a new record for us,” Mattingly said. “I heard over the weekend that the Quad Cities brought in 95,000 pounds of food which is fantastic but when you look at it per capita, Princ-eton was by far the most generous I’ve ever seen. It makes me really proud
and happy to be part of this community.”
In Spring Valley, Hall Township Food Pantry director Jan Martin said the food pantry received about 2,200 pounds of items from Saturday’s postal collection, which was up about 200 pounds from the amount received from last year’s Stamp Out Hunger food drive. Plus,
there were also some mon-etary donations which helps a lot since food pantries can buy things at reduced costs from area food banks, she said.
The needs at the Hall Township Food Pantry are definitely greater during the summer since chil-dren aren’t getting any

WALNUT — The cause of a Saturday afternoon fire at the Walnut Grove apart-ment building in Walnut has been determined to be electrical in nature.
On Monday, Walnut Assistant Fire Chief Jon Davis said Saturday’s fire started in a downstairs apartment in the cen-tral portion of the two-story building, which has 18 apartments. Two of the apartments received severe damage, while two other apartments had smoke damage. Some of the remaining apartments may also have some smoke odor damage, Davis said.
None of the residents have been allowed to move back into the building at this time, the assistant chief said.
The Walnut Fire Depart-ment received the emer-gency call at about 3:20 p.m. Saturday to respond to the apartment build-ing fire on Walnut Grove Street. Upon arrival, fire-fighters saw smoke from under the eaves of the cen-tral section of the two-sto-ry building. Everyone was already out of the building, Davis said.
Emergency personnel were on the scene for about four hours, Davis said. There were no injuries to residents or firefighters, he said.
Responding to the scene with mutual aid were the fire departments from Ohio, Manlius, Tampico, Princeton and Rock Falls. The state fire marshal was
PRINCETON — With May being National Bike Month, it’s the perfect time to gear up for a ride with family and friends or consider taking the bike to work a couple times this week, with summer weather well on
its way.National Bike Month was
established in 1956 by the League of American Bicyclists. It showcases the benefits of bicycling, and encourages many to give biking a try.
Princeton resident Dennis Nink is an avid bike rider. Dur-ing good weather, he’s known to be out and about three to
four times a week. A bike ride for him consists of riding any-where between 20 and 50 miles.
To Nink, who is also a Princ-eton Park Board member, the positive benefits of biking are endless.
“There’s the cardiovascular benefit, strength benefit and it works the core. To some degree it gets you to enjoy
exercise. You can go ahead and do something you enjoy and it gives you a great way to cross train,” he said. “Also, you can go fast, it’s a lot cooler, you get to see a lot more things while riding and you can talk with people if you’re biking in a group.”

What started as just an activity to try out on his rest days during his weekly workout routines, turned into a more aggressive sport he’s focused more and more on over the years. Today, Nink hits the bike routes up to four times a week when the weather is good. He will be one of many taking advantage of National Bike Month.

PRINCETON — Princ-eton Christian Academy is planning its first run/walk 5K event to help raise funds for new gymnasium bleachers.
Next year, the school will be hosting sport tournaments for the first time in many years, and the current bleachers are aging and on their way to becoming a hazard.
The school is looking to raise $20,000 to purchase the new bleachers.
Amy Thompson, who is part of the Steering Com-mittee for the Eagle Run/Walk 5K, explained how PCA is looking forward to hosting other area teams, and the opportunity has allowed them to come together and put on a community event to help raise money for some-thing that will benefit the tournaments.
“I’m really proud of PCA because they see this is the future, and a lot of places don’t prepare. This isn’t going to be a last minute thing,” she said.
The walk will be for all ages and is scheduled for June 14. There will be medals available for the first-, second- and third-place winners in 12 age divisions. Participants
can register online at Eag-lerun5k.net. The Steering Committee is also looking for sponsors for the event. Those interested can call PCA at 815-875-2933.
A special part of this 5K event will be the pace car representative, who will lead the walkers and run-ners.
“Our goal was to pick somebody that PCA has prayed for and somebody who is an instrumen-tal part of the school,” Thompson said.
Long-time employee and volunteer at PCA and member of Princeton Bible Church, Beverly Neff, was their pick.
Neff has been involved at PCA for almost two decades. She started out as a volunteer monitor-ing recess once or twice a week and shortly later was hired to monitor recess five days a week. She has also been a long-time active member of the church.
Aside from the many hats she wears between the church and school, Neff is an inspiration and success story for students and staff. She is a can-cer survivor — this past March marked five years of being cancer free.
When she was first diagnosed and under-went chemotherapy and radiation, she was deter-mined to never miss a day at PCA.
Looking back Kristen Wolbrecht, PCA School Board member, remem-bers Neff scheduling chemo, radiation and doctor appointments around her work and vol-unteer activities.
When asked what kept her strong and motivated during the rough times, she immediately opened up about a certain night during her battle.
“At 2 a.m., there wasn’t a soul around … and I remember I wasn’t sleep-ing, and I just started cry-
ing and honestly I had not a clue what I was cry-ing about except that a two-to-three hour pro-cedure had turned into four hours, and two-to-three days in the hospital turned into six days and being readmitted, and an 8 percent chance of hav-ing a colostomy turned into a certainty.
“I wasn’t eating, sleep-ing, couldn’t sit, and when I finally stopped crying I remember feeling like I was surrounded by arms holding me and this small voice said, ‘It’s OK, we can do this.’ That two letter word, ‘we,’ changed everything, From there I just kind of sailed. My perspective on things changed. It wasn’t just me, it was the Lord and me, and we could do it.”
Neff stayed active in her volunteer activities with the school, church and the community and even kept up mowing her yard when it was needed.
Wolbrecht explained Neff has been able to help fellow cancer survivors in the church, and she is able to encourage others through their battle and comfort them during the hard times.
“She has a presence here, and when she got sick (everyone) was on their knees ... She’s just been a real cool testimo-ny, and she’s a very strong lady,” she said.

This June, the school will host a 5K walk/run event to raise money to purchase new bleachers, which will come in handy when the school begins hosting sport tournaments next year.

The area offers many good places to bike. The area rural roads are a great place, and Zearing Park in Princeton offers a large trail to bike on. For those who are looking to get out to bike, Nink said the I&M Canal is a great place to road bike and Matthies-sen State Park offers great trails for mountain biking.
On a different note, the Census Bureau recently reported many U.S. cit-ies are seeing an increase in bicycle commuters. It reported the number of people who traveled to work by bike increased by 60 percent over the last decade. From 488,000 in 2000 to about 786,000 dur-ing the 2008-12 period.
Brian McKenzie, a Cen-sus Bureau sociologist and author of the report, explained in recent years, many communities have taken steps to sup-port more transportation options, such as bicycling and walking.
Just for the record, Port-land, Ore., has the highest bicycle-commuting rate at 6.1 percent, up from 1.8 percent in 2000.
According to Nink, the increase in bikers can be linked to a couple things. One, the population is growing older and biking is a good sport that’s low impact on the joints; and two, the fuel economy.
“It’s cheaper to bike than drive, but you have to look at the other side of coin,” he said. “Are those stats for the urban
or rural area? I think there are other stats that show people are driving to work more today than 20 to 30 years ago. If jobs are more scarce than people are traveling more.”
In early April, the Illinois Department of Transpor-tation (IDOT) announced Gov. Pat Quinn and Illi-nois Transportation Secre-tary Ann L. Schneider had released the first-ever Illi-nois Bike Transportation Plan — making bicycles part of Illinois’ long-range transportation vision. The plan provides IDOT with policies, best practices and strategic direction for implementing a sustain-able, multi-modal trans-portation system across the state.
The bike plan provides more than 200 recommen-dations and action items to enhance IDOT’s ability to provide safe and cost-effective accommodations for cyclists across the state. The complete plan and accompanying technical documents can be found online at www.Illinois-BikePlan.com.
Mark the calendar: The fourth annual ZTour event will take place on July 19. The event welcomes bik-ers from all over to ride scenic routes through Bureau County. There are several routes, including a 10-mile, 30-mile, 50-mile, 62-mile and 100-mile, to choose from. The event benefits the Zearing Child Enrichment Center. For more information visit Z-Tour.org.

Bike Safety Tips• Know your surroundings.• Wear light colored clothing in the early morning
and late night. Make sure to sport a headlight or taillight and reflective gear.
• Stay to the right side of the road. Remember bikers are smaller than vehicles.
• When planning out a bike route, remember whatever distance you ride out to you will have to ride back from that point.
• Bring enough water and hydrate often. When riding, the wind often times evaporates the sweat, and riders don’t realize how much their bodies have perspired.
• Follow the traffic rules. Try to make eye contact with a driver so you know they see you. Signal to drivers when you plan on crossing in an intersection or making a turn. Be cautious when cresting a hill.
• Make sure to have your bike checked by profes-sional service technicians, such as Bike Works in Peru, on a regular basis. A technician will overlook the bike and make sure all parts are working prop-erly.

contacted. The Walnut Police Department and Bureau County Sheriff’s Department also respond-ed to the scene, as did the Bureau County Red Cross.
On Monday, Bureau County Red Cross direc-tor Lori Compton said the Red Cross has assisted the residents of 10 apartment units in the building, as of Sunday. The Red Cross assisted the families with immediate needs, like food, clothes and shelter. The Red Cross will contin-ue to assist the families in coming weeks during the recovery period, primarily with referrals assistance, she said.
Looking back to the Walnut fire, Compton said the Red Cross got the call about 4:30 p.m. Satur-day from the scene. She
did contact the Regional Disaster Manager Scott Allshouse who traveled with a client case supervi-sor to the Walnut fire site.
She also had nine local volunteers responding to the site, Compton said.

meals at school, Martin said. There are definitely more parents coming to the food pantry during the summer to help feed their families. The annual Stamp Out Hunger drive is an important collec-tion, as are the other col-lections taken during the year to benefit the Hall Township Food Pantry, Martin said.
On Monday, Wal-nut Postmaster Jennifer Blackert said the Walnut Post Office and carriers collected 409 pounds of
food items, hygiene items and paper products dur-ing Saturday’s drive. Last year, the collection was 376 pounds. There was a great variety of things donated by Walnut area residents. As always, the collected items will all go to the Walnut Food Pan-try, Blackert said.
Shawna Duncan of the Sheffield Post Office reported 1,439 pounds of food and $300 in cash donations were collected in her area. Looking at the number, she believed it was a record-setting fig-ure for the food collec-tion. The donations were
collected and donated to the Western Bureau County Food Pantry on Saturday, Duncan said.
“I think a lot of people are now more generous given the economical issues,” she said. “Peo-ple are just in the giving mood, I guess.”
On Monday Wyanet Postmaster Gina Ohda said 350 pounds of items were collected on Satur-day by her post office and carriers, which is a good amount for a small town. There was a good variety of things donated. All items will go to the Wyanet Food Pantry, she said.
While final num-bers had not yet been determined at the Ohio Post Office, Patty Noble reported her area had collected quite a bit of food donations, which are split between the Walnut Food Pantry and Princeton Food Pantry. This was Noble’s first year in the Ohio office during the Stamp Out Food collection and it was a great experience to participant in knowing that it would be benefit-ing the local food pan-tries, Noble said.

SYCAMORE – Leon Madey, 72, died within minutes of falling into corn in a grain bin May 5 at his farm in rural Genoa, DeKalb County Coroner Dennis Miller said.
An autopsy performed last week showed Madey died of asphyxiation, Miller said.
“The pressure of the corn would not let him breathe, too much pres-sure on his torso,” Miller said.
Madey and his son, who authorities did not identify, were trying to dislodge a hardened layer of corn from inside the bin on Madey’s farm at 35770 Genoa Road, when the son walked
away from the bin for an undetermined amount of time, authorities said. When he returned, Madey was gone. The son called police at 12:44 p.m. May 5.
More than 100 fire-fighters and rescue per-sonnel helped empty the bin and rappel inside to find Madey, whose body they discovered in a standing position about 4:15 p.m. May 5. He was six to seven feet from the bottom.
Madey was a lifelong farmer and also was a volunteer firefighter with the Genoa-Kingston Fire Department for 20 years, retiring about 10 years ago, fire Chief Bruce Kozlowski said.
“He was a great guy,” Kozlowski said. “A hard worker, good farmer, good firefighter.”

From the editor’s deskMother’s Day 2014 has come and gone. I hope every-
one had a great day, and I also hope you made some memories to last a lifetime.
•••The spring flowers are really blooming. My blue-
bells are just beautiful this year, as are the daffodils and tulips. And the red bud trees? Oh my! I think they are one of my favorites. I have several, and their pretty purple flowers are nothing short of breathtaking!
•••Are you planting a garden this year? I
have some of mine in, but I still have a few more plants I want to buy. It’s a lot of work now, but those home-grown tomatoes in the late summer will remind us why we do it. There’s nothing better than a big, thick slice of tomato on your grilled burger or your BLT. Mmmmmm. If you have any recipes you’d like to share with the BCR, please email them to BCR Recipe Columnist Judy Dyke at [email protected].
•••OK, so what did you think of our new Illinois Val-
ley Scene, which arrived last week? Yep, it’s a new product that replaces the old Bureau County Journal. The IV Scene is distributed to every household in Bureau and Putnam counties, and it is meant to serve as guide to what’s going on in our own backyard and beyond. We’ve got lots of fun features planned for upcoming editions, including restaurant/venue reviews, sports Senior Spotlights, Voice of the Chil-dren, our Good Eats recipe page and more.
In order for this product to be successful, we are relying on you to send us your event information, so we can include it in the IV Scene. Send your informa-tion to [email protected]. Please include a phone number, so we can call you if we have questions.
I hope you enjoy the Illinois Valley Scene. The entire staff has been integral in creating this project, and I’d encourage you to give me a call or send me an email. I’m always interested in hearing your thoughts. I can be reached at 815-875-4461, ext. 229, or you can email me at [email protected].
•••Congratulations to the winners of our Mommy &
Me Photo Contest. They are first-place winner Amber Maggi; Brittany McClure, second; Trisha Hamrick, third; Koreen Judd, fourth; and Brittany Bejster, fifth. Thanks to everyone who participated in this fun-filled contest.
•••It’s difficult to believe pomp and circumstance are
already in the air. That’s right ... high school gradu-ates from around the area are preparing for that spe-cial day when they’ll get that hard-earned diploma. This weekend seniors from Hall High School and St. Bede Academy will graduate on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Congratulations!
•••Just a reminder. The Bureau Valley Antique Club
will host its annual Spring Preview at the Harold Steele farm outside of Dover, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. If you’ve never attended this event, you’ll want to make sure you take some time to visit; I guarantee you’ll be absolutely impressed when you leave. Harold Steele and company go all out for this fun and informational activity. It’s clearly one of my favorite events of the year. An additional perk this year is Max Armstrong will be speaking to the crowd at 1 p.m. Armstrong is one of the most widely recognized and highly regarded agricultural journalists in America. You won’t want to miss it!
•••Thought for the day: “My motto was always to
keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging.” Hank Aaron.
•••I forgot to mention last week that Pat Polson
arrived right on schedule to deliver me her annual May basket. What a sweet gesture! Thanks, Pat! You made my day!
•••May is such a busy month, especially with school
letting out for the summer. Try to take some time for you and those you love. And remember ... you are important to me and the BCR.

Letters Policy
Justice for NigeriaThe extremist group Boko Haram
has been ravaging the country of Nigeria in the states of Yobe, Borno and Adamawa in attempts to keep girls from going to school. This insurgency from the extrem-ist group has led to numerous car bombings, open fire attacks, and dormitory burnings. Their recent attacks have led to the kidnapping of more than 250 girls who are still missing to this day since April 14. With so little help from Nigeria’s own government, a modern day SOS has been sent out internation-ally across social media. The cam-paign features the words: “Bring Back Our Girls.”
To show support for the Nigerian families whose daughters have been killed or abducted, activists have taken photos of themselves hold-ing signs with the campaign slogan. The purpose is to spread awareness of the social injustice that affects us all. Education activist, Malala Yousafzai notes, “We have been sent to this Earth as a community, and it is our responsibility to take care of each other.”
What we decide to do now will indeed set a precedent for the future. If we as a global commu-nity choose to ignore the extremist actions of Boko Haram, the conse-quences will be devastating.
The actions of Boko Haram are threats and attacks challenging a girl’s right to an education. Trans-
lated into English, Boko Haram means “Western education is sin.” The people involved in this extrem-ist group seek to lessen the power of girls by making sure they remain submissive house slaves instead of independent, intelligent women. In a video threat, one of the leaders laughs at the idea that a girl should ever need to go to school.
Today, approximately two-thirds of the 880 million illiterate adults are women (savethechildern.org). If the opportunities are made avail-able, however, girls who are edu-cated are able to live healthier lives, have less chances of pregnancy at a young age, earn more in their pro-fessions, and are less dependent on others. Having an education allows women to make their own choices and prepares them to become more informed citizens. The United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) rec-ognizes that “when all children have access to a quality education rooted in human rights and gender equality, it creates a ripple effect of opportunity that influences gen-erations to come.” Progress starts with one generation of girls. But
the violent actions of Boko Haram threaten Nigeria’s step toward mak-ing education accessible and safe for today’s and future generations.
There is no telling how extreme and powerful the actions of Boko Haram can become. This is why we, in the United States, must be aware of the situation in Nigeria. If we fail to recognize the severity of the attacks and kidnappings in Nigeria, who knows how much more injus-tice will continue to occur in that area if the Nigerian government is forced to act solely on its own. The safety of the girls will be com-promised every time they are in a school setting. Parents will be less likely to send their girls to school if the kidnappings persist.
In order to protect the girls from these threats, the global commu-nity must take action to subdue the challenges made by Boko Haram. To encourage the progress of girls’ rights and to increase awareness about the kidnapping situation in Nigeria spread the word to “Bring Back Our Girls.” Keep yourself informed and be an advocate for the girls who strive to have their day in school.

Junior high trackAt Erie: Bureau Valley North
qualified eight athletes for IESA 1A State Track and Field competition in East Peoria this weekend. The
BVN seventh-grade girls finished fourth and the seventh-grade boys placed fifth.
State qualifiers include sixth-grader Carly Konneck (long jump), seventh-graders Aaron Kruse (shot), Payton Moore (400), Eric Schoff (shot), Emily Fordham (high jump, 400), Stephanie Gripp (dis-cus) and Christen Hurley (long jump,hurdles) and eighth-grader Brad Sierens (800).
No other area results were reported.
Boys trackAt Geneseo: Top place-finishers
for Princeton in Friday’s ABC meet at Geneseo were thirds by Drew Pranka in the 110 HH A Flight (15.2) and Lenny Mead in the 110 HH B flight (16.9).
PHS senior Caleb Strom placed fourth in A flight for long jump (19-5), the 100 meters (11.1) and the 200 meters (22.9).
Princeton senior Zoe Mead had a double in her first taste of competition in the Three Rivers Confer-ence Track and Field Meet. She won the 400 meters with a meet record in the 800 meters (2:20.76) and personal best and near meet record 58.72 in Fri-day’s conference meet at Rockridge High School.
“Zoe ran a couple of very nice races,” PHS coach Pat Hodge said. “Her 400, in particular, was impres-sive. I didn’t know what to expect as this was probably the quickest turnaround we’ve had all year doing the 800-400 double with only about 15-20 minutes in between. But she came through with an impres-sive come from behind season best.”
Bureau Valley tallied 94.5 points Friday to finish second behind champ Erie/P r o p h e t s t o w n (137.5). Amboy/LaMoille (86) claimed third, Hall (70.5) was fourth and Princeton (63) sixth.
“Our goal at the start of the year was a top three finish in confer-ence, and we are elated that we go second. We really competed well,” BV coach Dale Donner said. “We knew our older kids with experi-ence would step up, but our fresh-man really showed poise for their first big meet. This is a very strong con-ference and to get second place is a major accomplish-ment.”
BV junior Lind-sey Hoffert won the long jump (16-2 1/4) by 13 1/4 inches, fin-ished second in the 200 (27.12) and third in the 400 (1:02.61). Hoffert, who finished runner-up in the tally for the day’s Most Valuable tabulations, also took part in the Storm’s second-place effort in the 4x100 relay (52.35) with Haley DeVoss, Marissa
Mungia and Tian-na Kennedy.
The Storm also placed second in the 4x200 (1:49.64) with DeVoss, Mungia, Kennedy and Katelyn John-son and the 4x400 (4:14.29) with Hel-ena Arnadottir, Johnson, Sabrina Webb and Ken-nedy. BV’s Sydney Lebahn placed third in the discus (106-1).
Donner is hope-ful the Storm’s efforts are a pre-lude to Thursday’s sectional competi-tion in which the Storm will host Thursday at Man-lius with 11 of the TRAC teams on hand.
“We are really performing well right now and have improved a tre-mendous amount over the past few weeks and look-ing forward to sec-tionals on Thurs-day. We have hit qualifying marks in 5 events and
just hope we can contin-ue our improvement,” he said, noting the Storm’s efforts in the long jump, discus, 4x100, 4x200 and 4x400 relays.

He was also an Aca-demic All-CCIW for the winter season.
• The brother and sis-ter duo of T.J. and Liz Mosbach also tasted conference success for Mount Mercy Univer-sity in the May 3 Mid-west Collegiate Confer-ence Championships in Dubuque, Iowa.
The senior T.J. won the 5,000 meters (16:15.80) and the 10,000 meters (33:51.15) and was fifth in the 1,500 meters (4:21.27).
The sophomore Liz picked up a MCC title in the 400 meters (57.66). She was also second in the 800 meters (2:24.49) and the triple jump (35-0.25) and was fourth in the long jump (17-4.25).
meters proved to be one of the most exciting races of the night. Rachel Cob-ert of Erie/Prophetstown opened up a 10-meter or so lead heading into the final stretch before Mead kicked into higher gear to break the tape, beating Cobert by 1.22.
She just missed out on the meet record of 58.72 set by eventual 1A State cham-pion Alison Baron in 2008. Mead did eclipse the meet record of 2:21.30 set by Newman’s Amanda Trancoso in 2008.
Princeton junior Colbi Schertz broke her own newly set school record in the shot put with a winning toss of 39-5. Classmate Taylor Clark was second in the discus with a toss of 106-9 on her last throw.
LaMoille senior Laura Reiker soared off to a winning jump of 5-2 in the high jump for the Lady Clippers, two inches higher than the rest of the field. She is the LaMoille school record holder in the event.
“This is a great way for Laura to go out as TRAC Champion in her special-ity event. She has put in the work and it shows with her improvement late this season,” A/L coach Bob Halberg said.
Other leading contributors for Amboy/LaMoille, included Megan Grady, who
was first in the 3200 (12:01.55) and sec-ond in the 1600 (5:51.21), Erika Zimmer-lein, who was second in the 100 (13.65) and third in the 200 (27.29).
Hall freshman Madi Quinn went 10-0 to win the pole vault and placed second in the 100 hurdles (16.83). Hall coach Nick Hanck said Quinn did everything he asked of her.
“Madi did exactly what we wanted her to do and that was clear qualifying height. I also told her to go get the meet record and she did that as well. She also ran her best times of the year in the 100 hurdles,” Hanck said.
The Hall coach said the Lady Devils had several season’s best, including the 4x800 relay of Kaylee Olivares, Amelia Moreno, Paigie Orlandi and Ashley Keegan, who cut 19 seconds off their time to place sec-ond in 10:37.
The conference meet competition was the first for Princeton, Hall and St. Bede since joining the Three Rivers this school year.
“It was nice to get back into a con-ference situation where the meet has a championship feel to it,” Hodge said.
• Notes: Erie/Prophetstown won con-ference titles and scored in every event. One of the titles saw Rachel Cobert break a 13-year-old conference record in the triple jump by going 36-1 1/2.

“Racers start your engines!” is something you normally hear at an automobile race like NASCAR or the Indy 500.
What happens when you put a car on a ramp? It will roll down to the ground. An invisible force is pulling it down: gravity.
Susan is using weight. She has glued some pennies to her car to make it heavier. But its boxy shape has drag which slows it down.
Taylor has engineered his car to have less drag. When a car moves through the air, it causes friction. Friction causes drag, a force that slows a moving object. Streamlined and smooth objects have less drag than jagged or flat ones.
But, what if a car had no engine? How would it move? Could it still be a race car?
Susan and Taylor each made a gravity-powered car. Gravity has the same amount of pull on all of the cars in a race down a ramp. Each kid is using science to make his or her car go faster.
