Odyssey of the Mind 2009: The Lost Labor of Heracles (Wisconsin State Tournament)

Brookfield Central High School's solution to Problem III: The Lost Labor of Heracles.

"Teams will create and present an original performance about the ancient Greek hero Heracles. In Greek Mythology, King Eurystheus ordered Heracles to perform 12 labors. The team will reenact Heracles performing one of the 12 labors, as well as a Lost Labor--a team-created thirteenth labor forgotten in history. The performance will also include a god or goddess from Greek Mythology, an original mythological creature that plays a role in the Lost Labor, and the team's version of why the Lost Labor was forgotten in history. "

BC was the Division III winner at the Wisconsion Odyssey of the Mind tournament and will be performing again at OM World Finals at Iowa State University.
