Odyssey of the Mind: March 3, 2012


Odyssey of the Mind is a problem-solving competition open to students from kindergarten through the university level. Mountain Alliance was able to help provide the snacks to the particpants competing at Watagua High School. With an emphasis on creative solutions, participants attempt to answer a variety of questions in subjects as diverse as mechanical engineering and literary interpretation. Questions are timed, and students must come up with their best answers in just eight minutes.
 

 Team members work together at length to solve a predefined problem and present their solution to the problem at a competition. They must also generate spontaneous solutions to a problem they have not seen before.

Mountain Alliance members also learn how great it is to have a servant's heart by helping clean up after the competition. 



Mountain Alliance worked together as a team and provided snacks in the concession area such as, popcorn, drinks, pizza, sandwiches, and most importantly support for all the teams who were in the competition.This awesome experience will brighten the memories for all who participated!
