Talawanda Destination Imagination Program
Destination Imagination is an innovative creative problem-solving STEAM program for participants from kindergarten through high school. Teams of 5 to 7 students are challenged to solve one of six unique Team Challenges and an Instant Challenge with no adult assistance. Teams pick one of six challenges providing an opportunity to explore science, technology, engineering, fine arts, improv, and service. The season culminates with each team presenting at a tournament in the spring. Grades 3-12 compete against other area teams to qualify for competition at the Ohio state tournament.
Our regional tournament will be held on Saturday, March 16th, at Springboro schools. Teams forming will require a parent or other adult that is willing to volunteer their time to be a team manager. Free Manager/Coach training sessions are available in the fall.
It is time to begin forming and registering teams for this year. Please contact me in the near future if you are interested in helping to manage a Destination Imagination team this year. Without managers, we cannot have teams. We will be hosting an informational meeting about Destination Imagination on Wednesday, September 19th, from 6:30-7:30pm in the upstairs meeting room at the Oxford Lane Public Library located at 441 S. Locust Street. All are welcome to attend. Information will explain the program, how teams are formed, and how to become a team manager. Sign ups will also be available for children interested in participating.
