Odyssey of the Mind

There are 3 components to the cost of membership:

1. The association fees directly paid to the Odyssey of the Mind international organization (per membership)
2. State fees paid to the California State Odyssey of the Mind organization (per membership)
3. Tournament fees paid to this regional organization, per team that will compete in the regional tournament

The first two are enumerated and explained at the California State Odyssey of the Mind website, on the link Cost of Participation.

The third fee, paid to the region to offset the costs of running the regional tournament is usually announced around December, and is due before the 31st of January of the tournament year. This is because the costs of running the tournament are variable year to year, and it takes us that long to calculate the fair amount to charge. Last year, the tournament fees were $70 per team for on-time registration, and $100 per team for late registration. Caveat - this DOES vary from year to year, and, unfortunately, usually upwards!
