There were so many interesting twists on some of the problems! These kids won the chance at seeing so many different things and ideas on one problem. I do believe this will change them in their way of thinking, I know on my own son, it made an impact! He came back with ideas of college and future Ootm projects whirring in his head! After seeing the Division III teams compete, he knows for a fact that Ootm will be apart of his High School life and already has plans for competing in College level, Division IV...After all he states...Ootm, gives SCHOLARSHIPS!!!! (the magic word for a single mom:)
I wish I could have captured the entire adventure on more than just film. It was so much more! The best is to someday try to experience Ootm for yourself! Next year, make it a point, if you have not, to visit regionals or states if you can! Or better yet, take a short ride to Maryland next year, even for just a day or two. I know, easier said than done!!
Some of these photos are of Division IV teams, Tag em'. They actually had a crane to hoist the bird up above, it was quite amazing!!
