At the end of May we made the long trip with our families down to Tennessee. The first day at U of T in Knoxville at Globals was awesome! At the opening ceremony there were many different countries. |
| Each group wore a different color shirt which filled the arena with colors like a rainbow. |
 |
| The teams from Michigan also had inflatable fish to wave. |
 |
 |
There was a parade showing the participating countries and states. Here one of our team members marches in the parade with the Michigan delegation. |
| Besides the ceremony, the first day included a lot of pin trading. Teams from all over the world had unique and funny pins |
 |
 |
These pins are some of our favorites. They come from places like Guatemala, Korea, Venezuela, South Dakota, Missouri, California, Connecticut, and MICHIGAN! |
