2009 State Tournament

The 2009 Odyssey of the Mind State Tournament for the state of California will be held very close to home for us! Everyone is encouraged to attend to cheer on the teams. This is a wonderful opportunity for your kids to see the next level of competition, without the pressure of competing in it!

The tournament will be held on April 4th (Saturday), at Heritage High School in Brentwood, CA. Brentwood is just a few miles north of Livermore, so it is not too far for us to go in the morning, and come back in the evening.

Here is the link to schedule information on the tournament.

Here is a link to the map of Heritage High school.

If you do go, be sure to check out and cheer on our Silicon Valley teams, click here for schedule.

The address is: Heritage High School, 101 American Ave, Brentwood, CA.

See you there!

Judge's Training!

We have Judge's training coming up on Saturday the 21st and 28th. If you have signed up to be a judge, please come to the training on the date that you signed up for. If you did not sign up for a date, please let us know ASAP, so we know which one you are planning on attending.

Teams, remember, if you don't supply a judge, YOU WILL NOT BE SCHEDULED TO PARTICIPATE in the tournament, and there is no refund of fees paid! So, please take care of this NOW, if you haven't already .
