We received the following message from the Principal of Fall
Church High School:
We prefer that all participants wear closed toe shoes.
Additionally, we do not allow hard soled shoes on the gym
floor.
Teams, coaches, and parents should bear this in mind when
dressing for Tournament Day.

Sorry for the short notice regarding this, but the NoVA East Odyssey region will be holding their 5th Annual Crush-a-Thon.
Time: Tuesday 2/16 and Thursday 2/18 from 6 – 8.
Format: First come, first served (no reservations). We will fit you in as best as we can.
This will allow you to test your structure prior to the competition. Open to all balsa teams. We will have a crusher apparatus, scales, and weights. You can test whatever you would like. For new teams this is particularly valuable because you get to see a real crusher apparatus prior to a competition.
For more information, please contact the NovaEast Balsa PC (dondesros@yahoo.com).
