Lulu Goes To State-Imagination Destination

Lulu is in 3rd grade.

This is her first year of

being part of

Destination Imagination.

To qualify you join a

small group.

I think there were 6 kids

in Lulu's group.

A panel gives you

a problem to solve,

5 mintues to figure out

how to solve it,

3 or 4 props to work into

the solution,

and a "zinger" written down

on a note that you can

see after you start your skit.

You have 5 minutes to use

all your facts,

your props

and your "zinger".

Lulu made it through all the

local rounds and was

one of 3 groups

(out of around 600)

going from this area

to state in

Stevens Point, WI.

I went along with her Mom,

Lulu and my other daughter,

Mimi, and BabyE met us there.

Before their round they

were a little nervous.

After their round they

felt pretty good.

Lulu was all smiles~

BabyE was excited too!

Sadly, Lulu did not get to go on

to Nationals...but she did a great job

just getting this far.

Next year, she will be older,

and wiser about the whole

process.

But for this year,

swimming in the hotel pool

was reward enough.
