OM World Finals Great Learning Experience

What a great experience the Odyssey Angels had at World Finals!

The Awards Ceremony was amazing and although we ended up not getting recognized at the ceremony, it was a tremendous success for our team.  We couldn't be more proud of what they have accomplished.

The team from Singapore won the Odyssey Angels Division II group.  We got to see them perform and it was fantastic!  Their theme was music and their angels solved the problems of Hip and Hop had broken up and they got them back together, the Oldies we losing energy and they re-energized them.  Their community problem was music piracy and they solved that problem by "Syncing" the pirates.  They sang and danced nearly the whole time with the songs telling the story.  I was so glad the team got to see the performance.  It was a great example of what the possibilities are.
