Odyssey of the Mind World Finals - University of Maryland















May 30 - June 5, 2008: Tucker's Odyssey of the Mind team at Unionville competed at the World Finals in Baltimore, Maryland. There problem was "DinoStories". It was an awesome experience for everyone involved. The team placed 14th out of 46 teams from around the world. They were disappointed but grateful for the opportunity to experience so many things. Pin trading was the hot topic at the OM Finals. Tucker has a towel filled with pins from across the US and several foreign countries. We spent two days in Washington, DC and one day in Baltimore. We took a Duck Tour of DC, toured the Capitol, rode the metro, and even saw the White House in a thunderstorm. The team even went to the Baltimore Orioles vs Boston Red Sox game and had a great time! Tucker had an incredible OM experience this year. He will never forget the friends he made and the fun they had.

Mrs. Guignard!
I just ran across your blog while browsing the net. Tucker sure has grown up since I last saw pictures of him over 5 years ago! I hope you are all doing well!
