A deep dive into Destination Imagination
Destination Imagination® (DI) is a global, volunteer-led nonprofit organization that hosts Team Challenges for students who want to take on the entire creative process—from imagination to innovation. Students participate in DI in 48 states and 30 countries! The program boasts more than one million alumni and 38,000 volunteers worldwide.
Here in Capital Region, we are a vibrant and active Destination Imagination region within the Texas affiliate. We host tournaments at the regional levels. At our tournaments student teams get to showcase their unique solutions to science, technology, engineering, arts, math, and service-learning Challenges, watch each other present, and celebrate their achievements together.
Students who participate in DI build lifelong friendships, self-esteem, and creative problem-solving skills. Not to mention DI is a phenomenal resume builder!
