Since starting the World Duct Tape Collection while on an Odyssey of the Mind trip to Maryland in 2004 with an OM Team from Darlington High School in Wisconsin the collection continues to grow. With a signed roll from each of the 50 United States and now rolls from 87 world countries!
Here is roll #87 from Portugal. Sandy with the store clerk that sold it to her in Favrios, Portugal.
My long range goal is to get a roll from all 200 world countries. My short term goal is to get half way there (to 100 countries) by the 2020 OM World Finals being held in Ames Iowa next spring.
After watching Rick Steves Travels on public television I got the idea to go after the 10 smallest countries in the world (micro countries). I all ready have three of them, Monaco, Malta and Luxembourg.
I will begin the process to make a contact with someone in the other seven,
Vatican City
San Marino
Liechtenstein
Andorra
Cyprus
Kosovo
Montenegro
To check the list of rolls in the collection to date go to ducttape2thefuturelist.blogspot.com and then plan your trip. Send me a roll from a country I do not have and I will send you the postage and a solid brass, 1 of 200, World Duct Tape challenge coin. You can see the one I sent to Sandy in the lower right hand corner of the picture above.
