Send PWHS's Odyssey of the Mind Team to Worlds!

Presenting Plymouth Whitemarsh High School's Odyssey of the Mind team! On April 3, the team placed 3rd at the state finals for Pennsylvania, becoming eligible to compete at the 2022 World Finals at Iowa State University! Although this is not their first year participating in Odyssey, this is the first time they have qualified for in-person Worlds!

 

What is Odyssey of the Mind? Odyssey of the Mind is a creative problem-solving competition. Teams of students work together, applying their skills and imaginations to develop and present solutions to problems that can range from building mechanical structures and vehicles to re-imagining literary classics.

 

Attending the World Finals is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our students to literally compete on an international stage. Teams from all over the United States and from more than 20 countries around the world will be gathering at what has been described as the "Olympics" of creativity. This team has been working tirelessly since the fall to compete at the regional and state competitions--it is a dream to make it to this next level!

 

But the team needs your help. The competition is May 25-28th so there's not much time to raise the money to be able to attend. Donations will help pay for travel, room and board, and competition costs for our 7 team members and 3 adults (2 coaches and a judge). The team is responsible for most of the money needed, so every little bit can help! If you can't donate, please share this and spread the word!

 

Thank you!

 

*NOTE: Please know that if we are unable to raise sufficient funds to go, we will be refunding your donations with our thanks.
