Maine-Endwell Odyssey of the Mind team headed to world competition
ENDWELL, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – Two teams from Maine Endwell are headed to the world competition in Michigan for Odyssey of the Mind. Students at Homer Brink Elementary qualified for the world competition after a strong performance at the state level. At states, one team placed second in the theme Astronomical Odyssey, and the other team also placed second in the Save Me Structure division. At each competition, the teams have to perform a skit using the sets and costumes that they designed. One student, Christian Isenberg, says it's easier to perform when you're around your friends. 'I expected us to get fourth place at states and not make it, but we did. We work well together as a team, and this team has been together, most of us have been together for a few years,' said Isenberg. Both teams will get bussed to Michigan State University for the first day of competition on May 21. There's a raffle taking place in the Homer Brink main office, to raise enough money to send the students to Michigan.
