Line Mountain Scholarship

Check back this December for next year’s application.

Pennsylvania Odyssey of the Mind lost several members of its Odyssey family in a tragic accident in March 1998. We are proud to remember the young people from Line Mountain — Chad Hain, Jason Herrold, Kip Snyder, Amanda Wehry, Toni Wehry, Tyrone Wehry, David Wiest, and Toby Wiest — through the awarding of annual scholarships to Pennsylvania seniors who best embody the creativity and spirit of Odyssey of the Mind.


Creative Opportunities Unlimited Scholarships

National Odyssey of the Mind scholarships are available from the nonprofit organization Creative Opportunities Unlimited.
