Journée 5 - Simon

Ce matin, nous sommes allés voir une présentation d'une équipe de lycéens qui faisaient le "News to Me", celui où on doit faire de l'improvisation. Nous y sommes allés parce que la coach de l’ équipe est la cousine de Madame Lagos. L'équipe était très cool. Ils pouvaient imiter n'importe quelle personne et n'importe quelle chose. L'après-midi, nous avons presenté notre défi "Hold It". Nous avons tous pensé que ça s'est très bien passé. Notre structure a tenu 425 livres plus les balles de golfe avec un total de 840 lbs. C'était 325 de plus qu’à la compétition de l'état. Après ça, nous sommes allés au centre aquatique de l'université et nous avons échangé beaucoup de pins.


This morning we went to see a high school level challenge called "News to Me." This is an improv challenge where they make up most of their skit on the spot. We went to this challenge because the team manager is Madame Lagos's cousin from Wisconsin. The teenagers were very funny. They could imitate almost anything or anyone with their bodies. This afternoon we performed our "Hold It" Challenge. We all think it went very well. Our 38-gram structure held 425 pounds plus we got an additional 840 pounds of credit for the golf balls we successfully delivered into the structure. This was 325 pounds better than we did at state. The judges especially liked our golf ball delivery device, saying it was one of the best they had seen. And, they seemed very impressed with our crocheted items and our homemade golf clubs. They appreciated how we worked everything together into our story. We'll find out tomorrow how we did. Finally, we ended the day with some swimming at the UT aquatic center and some pin trading. We'd like to thank all of our families for working so hard to get us to Globals to represent LNFI. We appreciate everything you have done to help us. Simon and the Bogey Bandits
