Mission Statement
To develop opportunities that inspire the global community of learners to utilize diverse approaches in applying 21st Century Skills and creativity.
The Destination Imagination program encourages teams of learners to have fun, take risks, focus, and frame challenges while incorporating STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics), the arts, and service learning. Our participants learn patience, flexibility, persistence, ethics, respect for others and their ideas, and the creative problem solving process. Teams may showcase their solutions at a tournament.
