Pins, pins, pins! Georgia Dragon or Swan pins are coveted. Star Wars pins rarely come in a set because kids “scam” multiple pins for a single pin. Somehow, someone made Fortnight pins. Harry Potter pins were reluctantly traded because “they’re not that great Mom!” I know...can you spell copyright? 😳

Pretty Hong Kong team members with their faces painted-appropriate as the Chinese love theatrical masks. Jon and Ami are one of 3 teams to successfully build an arch puzzle-our Gators know how to engineer a build!Angela discovers that paper soaked in turmeric changes color when painted with water and baking soda.

Now that World Finals is over, we’re allowed to share. An OM tradition at the highly secretive Spontaneous building is to spray teams with silly string as they exit. Teams are under tremendous pressure and stress to score points within 2 minutes by providing creative and original answers to a problem. Sometimes they freeze and other times they triumph. Regardless silly string makes it all better!

It takes courage...a ton of heart stopping courage, resilience and stamina to put yourself out there in front of World Odyssey Judges. Especially when you are from a rural Arizona City like Yuma. The bar is high and international teams are intimidating. Despite the odds, our team presented a beautiful, clever and innovative performance. I am so proud of them. On my score sheet, these kids are NUMBER ONE always because they gave it 💯%!

Parents and Coach Adele are ready to spray down the kids with silly string after team exits Spontaneous! The Spontaneous problem solving score accounts for 50% of total. It’s a mental and character challenge. Kids will get between 2 to 5 minutes to solve the problem assigned. Problems could be verbal, hands-on or both. Judges will evaluate creativity, communication, innovation and team work.
