The Ohio High School Landscape Olympics (OHLO) tests students' skills through hands-on, competitive events designed by industry professionals. OHLO broadens the high school education experience and introduces students to the many opportunities offered by a career in the green industry.
Check out this video produced by EMI from the 2023 OHLO event!
OHLO is open to all Ohio High Schools and Career Centers. Single teams from all participating schools may compete in all events, or just a few. Competitive events test the student’s abilities to interact in a hands on environment. Events are planned, implemented and scored by industry sponsors using guidelines generated by OGIA.
If you are a high school instructor interested in OHLO, please contact Roni Petersen at roni@ogia.org to receive a digital informational packet.
