2008 Geography Bee

The Oakland School conducted its 2008 Geography Bee on Friday, May 2nd. 27 students of 11 teams competed for the distinguished Bee and Honey trophy.

Competitors answered correctly questions of varying difficulty: Which of the Great Lakes is entirely in the U. S.? or What desert covers 70% of Turkmenistan with black sands?

Teams such as Sugar, Honey, Iced Tea, and Delta Force fell by the wayside after the first round. Two third period history teams advanced to the championship.

The Mighty Ducks of Alex Tybl and Greg "Quack" Johnson emerged as the Grand Champions.
