The one constant thing is that we (kids and adults) learn from the experiences and grow as a result. That's what the Odyssey is about and that's why I put myself through it year after year. 
Cathi Butryn - Paige Elementary School Coach

 I was impressed with the Cobleskill team, they're just SO GOOD...the team is so down to earth. Our team ran into them after the competition outside and the two teams started talking about mistakes each had made and telling each other it didn't matter - watching the two groups of teens who were competing against each other and didn't know one another treat each other so supportively truly impressed me - not many adults behave that well! Thanks again for everything!
