Send Collingswood Odyssey of the Mind Teams to World Finals

Three amazing Collingswood Odyssey of the Mind (OM) Teams are headed to the 2025 WORLD FINALS in East Lansing, Michigan to compete with teams from all over the planet.

It's an experience that we believe they will never forget, but it comes with a significant price tag, and we are humbly asking if you would be so kind as to help defray the cost for 20 3rd-12th graders who have worked hard for the past 8 months on their creative solutions.

One of these teams was crowned NJ STATE CHAMPION for their creative solution in Edison, NJ on April 5, 2025. They also won the rare Ranatra Fusca award for exceptional creativity.

Odyssey of the Mind is all about creative, competitive problem solving and you will be investing in kids who are artists, crafters, actors, engineers, scriptwriters, inventors, and so much more.

The magic of OM is that it is entirely STUDENT DRIVEN. These young people develop original scripts, songs, machines, and props, and that means navigating group dynamics and learning what collaboration truly entails. Everything comes from their brains and their hands and through this they learn valuable skills about teamwork, crafting, engineering, presentation, and more.

These funds will be handled by Friends of Collingswood Odyssey of the Mind, a non-profit created to provide financial support to Collingswood teams participating in this program. We'll be reimbursing as much of the participant and coach registration fees as possible.
