This Week’s Trivia Question: What company was formed in 1939 when the Standard Truck Caster Company merged with the Rapids Manufacturing Company? (No Googling! First to email Jay Forstner the right answer gets a mention in next week’s Cheat Sheet). Last week’s question was, “What tree’s heart-shaped leaves are the largest in Michigan?” The answer was the catalpa tree. Doug Congdon was the first to get the right answer.

Have a great week! Together, we’re investing in our students, because the future belongs to Pioneers.
