Science Olympiad!

Alicia and her friend Emily competed in the Science Olympiad held at Minot State University (where Alex Sr. attends). They had to study with a coach for weeks and then compete against about 10 other middle schools. There were around 15 total kids from Memorial at this competition. Only 1 group from each school allowed in each event. (So, they didn't have to compete against their own schoolmates.)

The hard work is done, now we're just chilling! Emily is wearing the bridge that she made for her competition on her head.
Alicia is nervous for the results!

WOOOHOOOOOO! Alicia and Marley take the bronze!

Shockingly, all but 1 student from Memorial won a medal in their events. WOW! We were all so excited. The squatting guy is her science teacher. You may remember him from the top of the ski hill. This guy is everywhere! Great guy!
