The CanDI Bashers are a group of 8-and-9-year-old girls from East
Chilliwack Elementary who placed first in their category at the BC
finals of Destination Imagination (DI). Now they’re headed for the
global finals in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Destination Imagination is a creativity competition This popular
process-based program helps young people build lifelong skills in
creative and critical thinking, teamwork, time management, and problem solving.

Participants work together as a team to create their unique solution to a Team Challenge, which can have a focus that is theatrical, structural, improvisational, scientific, or technical — or a blend of several disciplines.

The CanDI Bashers created their own skit about the importance of
nutrition and friendship. They wrote the script, built the props,
designed the costumes, and used their sewing and skipping skills to round out the show. Now they want to share it with the world!
