Odyssey of the Mind is a creative competition for children and students. Team members work together over a period of several months to solve one of five problems that the Odyssey organisation provides. Rules and regulations on how the problems had to be solved were given to us by the organisation.
Odyssey of the Mind gave us, a team of 10 to 12 year olds, the chance to prove and also play with our creativity. We were able to set our minds free and learn how to work in a team.
We worked in a group of 7 kids and had a specific amount of time to create a show/act which was based on only our own ideas - parents and coaches were not allowed to help. At all.
We were responsible for the show set-up and wrote the script by ourselves. We also created and designed our own costumes and props.
After that, we presented our performance to a larger audience at the German finals in early March. We were so excited, because our team, "The Fizzy Orange Juicers", ended up 1st place in our division... .So now we are ready to present at the upcoming World Finals in Michigan which is a huge event with teams from all over the world.
This is a wonderful opportunity for us to challenge ourselves and to experience this great event on a much larger scale. We will meet teams from all kinds of different places, we will have the chance to watch their presentations and learn from them. We will be challenged to find solutions for spontaneous problems the organisation hands to the teams, all in a new setting with different conditions. But as you can imagine it is quite challenging to get a group of kids from Germany over to the US, so we are depending on finding some sponsors for our adventure. We hope you are happy to support this once in a lifetime experience for us and donate money to our cause. Anything helps!
Your donations would be greatly appreciated. :)

=====================================================================
Odyssey of the Mind ist ein kreativer Wettbewerb für Schüler und Studenten. Teammitglieder arbeiten über einen Zeitraum von mehreren Monaten zusammen, um eines von fünf Problemen zu lösen, die von der Odyssee-Organisation vorgegeben werden.
Odyssey of the Mind gab uns, einem Team von 10- bis 12-jährigen, die Möglichkeit, unsere Kreativität zu entdecken und ihr freien Lauf zu lassen. Wir haben gelernt, erfolgreich in einem Team zu arbeiten und unsere Ideen zu umzusetzen. Regeln und Bedingungen wurden uns von der Odyssey Organisation gegeben.
Wir arbeiteten in einer Gruppe von 7 Kindern und hatten eine festgelegten Zeitrahmen, uns ein Skript und eine passende Darstellung auszudenken, die nur auf unseren eigenen Ideen basiert - Eltern oder Trainer durften nicht helfen.
Wir waren verantwortlich für die Show, schrieben das Drehbuch und haben auch unsere eigenen Kostüme und Requisiten entworfen.
Danach hatten wir bei den German Finals die Gelegenheit, unser Ergebnis einem größeren Publikum Anfang März vorgestellt. Wir waren so aufgeregt, denn unser Team, "The Fizzy Orange Juicers", gewann den 1. Platz in unserer Division .... Jetzt sind wir bereit, bei den kommenden World Finals in Michigan zu präsentieren, ein riesiges Event mit Teams aus aller Welt.
Dies ist eine tolle Gelegenheit und Herausfordung für uns, dieses Ereignis in einem viel größeren Maßstab erleben zu dürfen. Wir treffen Teams aus verschiedensten Ländern, haben die Chance, ihre Präsentationen zu sehen und von ihnen zu lernen. Wir werden unter ganz neuen Bedingungen auch Lösungen für "Spontan-Aufgaben" finden müssen, die von der Organisation an die Teams gestellt werden.
Aber natürlich ist es ziemlich kostspielig, eine Gruppe von Kindern zu solch ein Event aus Deutschland in die USA reisen zu lassen. Wir würden so gerne teilnehmen, sind aber davon abhängig, Sponsoren für unser einzigartiges Abenteuer zu finden. Es wäre toll, wenn Sie uns mit einer Spende unterstützen würden. Jede Spende hilft!
Vielen Dank von den "Fizzy Orange Juicers"
