National Ocean Sciences Bowl Final

The 14th annual National Ocean Sciences Bowl (NOSB) took place April 28th through May 1st. Winners from the regional competitions all met in Galveston, TX to compete in the finals. During the weekend the kids enjoyed competing against each other while getting the chance to get out for some field trips and exploring the area. This years winner was a team from Marshfield High School in Wisconsin.

Alaska was represented at the NOSB this year by the Tsunami Bowl champions from Juneau-Douglas/Thunder Mountain High School. They took 11th place overall but took first place in the inaugural policy briefing section of the competition and won a trip to Washington State to meet with members of the Pacific Coast Growers Association.

Congrats to all the teams who competed this year and thanks to the adults who helped get the teams together!
