Destination ImagiNation is an educational program in which student teams solve open-ended Challenges and present their solutions at Tournaments. Teams are tested to think on their feet, work together and devise original solutions that satisfy the requirements of the Challenges. Participants gain more than just basic knowledge and skills—they learn to unleash their imaginations and take unique approaches to problem solving. A team from Spooner participated in projectOUTREACH. They selected WCAHS as a community issue, held a dance to raise funds for the shelter ($887!) and volunteered at the shelter. Thanks to the team for a wonderful job! Shown presenting the check are Austin Reidt, Aubrey Reidt, Alyssa King, (shelter worker Kim Adams), Summer Marske, Max Nelson. Absent—Lauren Johnson.
