Leland Odyssey of the Mind: 2008 State Champions!

Here’s a page with information about team fundraisers and reports from the World Finals!

On Saturday in Grand Rapids two teams from Leland took the gold medal in their respective divisions in the Michigan Odyssey of the Mind State meet.

Both teams competed in the Tee Structure competition which required them to design and build a structure using only balsa wood and glue (maximum weight of 18 grams!) and also present a play while adding weight to the structure. Leland’s teams held the first and second highest weight totals with 328 in Division II and a whopping 443 in Division I! (results)

The teams now prepare for the World Finals May 31 – June 3 in Maryland.
