NBHS Odyssey of the Mind Car Wash Fund raiser March 29

North Buncombe High School Odyssey of the Mind teamNorth Buncombe High School’s Odyssey of the Mind team is having a fund raising car wash on Saturday, March 29, at Ace Hardware on Weaver Blvd. from 9:30 a.m. until 2 p.m. (weather permitting).  The team is raising funds for their April 5 trip to East Carolina University to compete in the Odyssey of the Mind State Competition. They qualified for the state competition after winning 2nd place in the Western Regional Division Competition for their performance in the “Eccentrics” problem. 

Pictured are team members, all freshman, Mary Cartherine Rubisch, Megan Tweed, Dillon Hunter, Lauren Eddins, Huey Tillett, Trent Arwood, and Kelsey Mitchell.  Third-year coach for the team is Carla Mitchell.

Odyssey of the Mind is a creative problem-solving competition in which students select a problem, create a solution, and present their solution against other teams from the same division.  Coaches facilitate the team’s work, but all work is completed solely by the team members.

Good luck to the NBHS team on April 5!
