Social Innovation Camp

This Wednesday our iQuest class took a field trip to the Social Innovation Camp. This is a camp where wise mentors guide intelligent kids to creating something amazing. I thought this was going to be a boring camp to be honest. Although immediately when I stepped in the door, I knew it was going to be a special experience. We started off by being put into groups. I got put into a group with three monte vista students that didn't know. I was shy and timid at first but as the event progressed we really got to know eachother. We had to create a PowerPoint on an idea or product that we came up with to solve a social issue. We chose the subject of puppy mills. This was a very sad subject that I thought moved some people. We did a great job collaborating and thinking as one. This whole thing reminded me of the movie "The Internship". I got a lot from this feild trip and I wouldn't mind doing it again.
