Check out the 2019 ComEd Ice Box Derby winners!
The ComEd Icebox Derby 2019 took place on August 3 at Daley Plaza, where 30 girls raced cars and competed in STEM challenges.

This segment is produced with and sponsored by ComEd.

Thirty girls, six teams, and six recycled refrigerators make for a twist on the old soap box derby race. This time, it's about getting the girls interested and engaged in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math by building their own racecars.
