WHS Odyssey of the Mind state trip

The Wakulla High School Odyssey of the Mind team won a spot in this year’s 2015 Odyssey of the Mind state tournament.  This is a great honor and well deserved for all of the hard work and effort they have put in over the last six months.  The team of seven students will compete against other high schools from around the state in this year's long-term problem, Problem 4 "Lose Your Marbles."  This problem required teams to design, build, and test a structure, made only of balsa wood and glue, that will balance and support as much weight as possible. The structure will also hold five marbles that will be released during weight placement as a result of a team-created device removing a piece of the structure. The team will also incorporated their weight placement into the theme of the performance.  Wakulla High  School is located 4.5 hours away from the tournament location which will be held at UCF in Orlando.  The money raised will be used to buy supplies, house students, supply food, and pick up any miscellaneous cost that the team may incur as a result of the problem or the trip.  The team’s ultimate goal is to get to the world finals in Michigan this year.   The team would like to thank everyone in advance for any donation that is given
