Tanner, along with the other three members of Team Proton, have been working on designing a small hydroelectric generator for a STEM competition for the past six months. After winning the island and regional events his team was selected to represent the SE region (??? really?? Last time I checked Guam was WEST of the US) of the US in the National eCybermission competition which will be held June 17 - 21st. There will be 16 teams total competing - four teams from each grade level, 6 through 9.
