    Recently seven of the Mount Carmel Area Odyssey of the Mind teams went to Williamsport. Three out of the seven teams advanced to world. Odyssey of the Mind is a competition that anyone can compete in. The teams consist of five to seven people. This competition has two parts. The first is your long term problem. At the beginning of the season you pick a problem. There are five total. You then have to solve this problem within an eight minute skit and meet all of the regulations. The second part is spontaneous. The team enters a room with three judges. You can receive a hands-on problem, a hands-on verbal problem, or a verbal problem. Each problem varies on topics and you have a specific amount of time. You are also limited to how many times you may answer. Each of your teams received 1st or 2nd place at the state competition. They will be going to the University of Maryland where they will compete for a world title. Spontaneous and the long term problems are on separate days. Pin trading and shirt trading are only two of the many activities to do during their time there.

    This sounds like a good way to learn life skills with other students your age. It gets you out of the class room and allows you to think out side of the box.

    Odyssey of the Mind is a great thing to be involved in. Having three teams going to worlds from Mount Carmel School is a big deal and a huge accomplishment.
