Friends & Family Division:<\/p>\n
Loser\u2019s team won the friends and family division by a land-slide. They took the lead in week 1 and stayed there throughout the entire 6 week challenge. They may be called the Losers, but they certainly won the challenge!<\/p>\n
Small Business:<\/p>\n
There was some competition in the small business division. Dr. Kenneth McDougall\u2019s Paradox team, Lincoln Elementary, and ME\u2019s 21st<\/sup> Century Daycare took turns leading this division throughout the 6 weeks.

They consistently had the highest point average for the first 5 weeks of the challenge.
