Switching to glide

Seven Elmwood High School students are gliding into the final round of the Canadian Exporters Association’s Hovercraft Competition.

The students and their product—the Elmwood Hovercraft System—made an impressive showing during semi-final competition in mid-January at the University of Manitoba. The team will return to the U of M on March 20 for the finals.

The Elmwood students assumed roles as designers, builders and business/marketing strategists for the extracurricular competition. Their hovercraft has been positioned as an environmental/sustainable development tool, used specifically for collecting water samples.
