DSIL Challenge #5
Starting Point | Field Immersion Challenge
We finally meet! About Challenge #5:
The first night the DSIL community arrives at the field immersions locations, we will spend our entire night engaging in the DSIL community initiation: Starting Point.
Why:
Starting Point is a time of building, sharing, and exploring authenticity in efforts to set the ground needed for the innovative and creative community that we will become. Once you have finished Starting Point, you are officially apart of the DSIL family.
During this time there will be several activities that we will participate in that require no prior preparation- just a fair amount of vulnerability and courage. You can do it!
However, there is 1 activity that we ask you prepare before: Prior to arriving participants pick a "gift" to share with your track that will help explain who you are.
How:
Pick 1 of the gifts below to share with us and be ready to share at the beginning of Starting Point. Even better- create your own.
- Bring a food to share that sparks a significant memory for you. We will eat the food! Tell us the memory, and how it has helped define who or why you are.
- Tell a significant memory of yours in a way that you haven’t told it before. Use color, movement, others in the room, or something you create on your own. Tell us the memory, and how is has helped define who or why you are.
Note:
- Starting Point begins at 4:00pm the Friday you arrive. Be sure to make the plans to checkin to your the accommodation earlier to ensure you are there on time.
Estimated Total Time to Prepare: less than one hour
