The West Carter Community Problem Solving Group placed first in state level competition for their MYTHS project, offering Narcan, drug testing supplies, and safe drug disposal options to the community of Olive Hill. The group also took a first-place trophy for the best overall display. In addition to their backlighted electronic phoenix, team advisor Chris Blankenship explained, the group worked with a local business to procure dry ice for a smoke effect with their display. The team also earned an invitation to the international competition, which takes place this year in Indiana.
