State Tournament – Register Now!

The Vermont Odyssey of the Mind State Tournament will be held March 19, 2016 at Champlain Valley Union High School in Hinesburg. To avoid a late fee, register your team by midnight  January 23, 2016. The fees are the same as last year, with a slight change in the payment schedule.  We are giving a payment period of two weeks after the registration deadline, but instituting a late payment fee.  The registration fee is $50 per team if registered by midnight of January 23, 2016 for Div. 1, 2 and 3.  Primary teams are $20.  All teams are required to provide a judge, including Primary teams.  If registering after 1/23/16 the fee is $100.  Payment is due by February 6, 2016.  If paid after that date, a $50 late fee will be assessed.  The Judge Waiver fee is $50 per team.

Judges’ Training is March 5, 2016, Mater Christi School, Burlington

Registration is limited to the first 12 teams to register for each session. Six teams will participate during the first hour and six more during the second hour.
