Haven Chuck is currently a 9th grade member of the Strath Haven Middle School Science Olympiad team in Wallingford, Pennsylvania. 2010 will be his 4th year competing, as he competed all years since 6th grade. He has never competed in a "study" event, and has competed in at least one building event at every one of the 8 competitions he competed in for this team.

†The device was disqualified for breaking a specific building rule. Strath Haven was taken by surprise by this, as they had no idea that there was a rule prohibiting their device, but the disqualification was completely legitimate.

‡This was the team's first ever trophy at the state competition. Trophy's are given out for the top 6 places at Pennsylvania States.

Experimental Design

 * This event has been one of Haven chuck's favorites for the last two years (2009 and 2010 seasons). For Regionals 2009, the team was composed of Eyeball138,LoveRespectPeace, and Haven chuck (all 8th graders at the time). After placing a slightly disappointing 6th, likely in part due to spending a large part of the test explaining one simple mistrial, they came back as the "Dream Team" for states. Luckily, they placed 1st, and we're ecstatic with that result. Unfortunately, this "Dream Team" could not stick together for the 2010 season due to conflicts. For the Solon invitational, it was planned that tclme elmo would have to take Eyeball138's spot. Since the team was not able to attend the competition however, this became a non-issue. For regionals of this year however, both Eyeball138 and LoveRespectPeace had unavoidable conflicts, and so it would be Haven chuck, tclme elmo, and gyourkoshaven to represent the team. They placed 2nd, and therefore were able to continue the streak of doing well in the event. For states, the team will have to be switched up once again, but will have the other two members of the original "Dream Team", along with tclme elmo.

Mission Possible

 * This is Haven chuck's self-proclaimed favorite event.

Science Crime Busters

 * Haven chuck competed in this event at every competition he has been at with the team since 2007 (his 1st year on the team), and plans to continue that for the remainder of this year.
 * Haven chuck has had 3 different partners for this event. In 6th grade he had one partner, he had the next for both 7th and 8th grade, and has a new partner for the current 2010 season.

Trajectory

 * Haven chuck has done this event since it was introduced in 2008 (7th grade), and built the competing devices for the 2008 State, and all of the 2009 and 2010 competitions. Haven chuck also competed in Storm the Castle in both competitions in 6th grade, which was the predecessor to Trajectory.
