Extra points were given for report cards with all As. More than 1000 entries were recieved this year, their numbered, then Random.org picks 12 entries.
All 12 of the finalists received an Apple Watch or an iPad Mini but everyone had their eye on the car. Holler Honda even threw in the $1,800 in taxes and fees as part of the award. College book scholarships of $500 and $1,000 were also awarded.
The program is now in its third year with Holler Honda donating nearly $60,000 in new cars.
Like a game of musical chairs the students walked around a table and selected a key, then each tried their luck to see which key would start the car.

Her mother watch as her daughter started the car, touching her heart in gladness.
