HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY HEATHER!

This is dedicated to your seven years in Destination Imagination and to all the volunteers who made it possible!

"We live in an age when the most valuable asset any economy can have is the ability to be creative — to spark and imagine new ideas, be they Broadway tunes, great books, iPads or new cancer drugs. And where does creativity come from?

I like the way Newsweek described it in a recent essay on creativity: 'To be creative requires divergent thinking (generating many unique ideas) and then convergent thinking (combining those ideas into the best result).'

And where does divergent thinking come from? It comes from being exposed to divergent ideas and cultures and people and intellectual disciplines." Thomas Friedman

CREATIVITY! More important than football and that is why a scoreboard begins this tribute.

Please ask your school district for the numbers: amount spent on football and amount spent on fostering creativity.
