Emilie Gibson Remembered

Emilie Gibson, a former Louisiana Destination Imagination team member, is remembered for her creativity, grit, and bravery by all those who knew and loved her. While a DI team member, Emilie bravely battled DIPG, an aggressive childhood brain cancer, and her family has established a foundation in her honor to raise awareness and funds for DIPG research. Visit the link below to learn about how you can help honor Emilie's memory and join the fight to end childhood DIPG cancer!

​Team Skills

All teams are encouraged to host a skills day by inviting local professionals to teach basic painting, acting, sewing, building, and technical skills. Remember TMs, it is not interference to TEACH practical life skills as long as you are not influencing their ideas for official challenge solutions.

How to Start a Team

Destination Imagination teams require the oversight of an adult team manager, over the age of 18, who is interested in providing opportunities for children to learn new skills and solve a Destination Imagination team challenge. 

All team managers must pass a background check before forming a team in order to protect the health and safety of team members. They must also be willing to participate in training, meetings with team members (virtually and/or in person), and help the team prepare for tournament events.

Check back for updates and e-mail [email protected] with any questions you may have.
