ANNIVERSARIES HERE AND ABROAD

Every team is important in Odyssey, whether it is just starting out or a group of seasoned performers. Also, the associations that make the program available to the U.S. and abroad are important because they give students the chance to explore their creativity and find their niche in the world. That is why celebrating all anniversaries are important within the program.

Here are this year’s anniversaries:

• Germany is celebrating its 20th
  
• Massachusetts is celebrating its 25th
  
• Connecticut and Virginia are celebrating their 30th Odyssey Around the World. . .
  

Congratulations to all and thanks again!

EUROFEST 2011

EuroFest will be held in Gdansk, Poland from April 30 - May 1. Hosting EuroFest will bring creative minds together from across the globe. This April will be the 19th annual Eurofest with over 70 teams from about 15 countries expected to attend.

This festival gives Odyssey teams a chance to interact internationally, have fun, and to showcase their solutions. Some expected countries are Hungary, Belarus, Germany, Russia, Slovakia, Moldova, Romania, and others.

Additionally, each team learns about other cultures while working together in groups to solve a unique Eurofest problem in only three days!

Last year, several teams from the U.S. made it to EuroFest in Belarus and had a blast representing the country at the event.
