Community Building at IMPACT

This Small Town activity created a lot of chatter in the ballroom.
When we say the word community, what do you think that means?

IMPACT collegians talked about shared beliefs, dependability in this Saturday morning session which focused on community and how you can strengthen your chapter's community next fall.

Leaders discuss the goals of their own personal
part of the town.
Small Town USA, a learning activity not the country song, challenged the collegians of the newly formed Diamond Town, Lion Town and Violet Town. Different pride groups worked together to discuss the needs of their own individual parts of the town, working together to create a cohesive unit.

Observers were also picked in each groups to listen and then comment to the group about how each town worked together.

Each groups discussed with the whole session what went right, and what could have been improved, in each session.

Co-Facilitator Adam Cantley said that this exercise is really an exercise in trust.

"You have to a level of trust for this to work, and you have to have trust for your sisterhood to work," He said.

IMPACT Attendees will have one more session tomorrow morning and most will be visiting Executive Office or the Georgia Aquarium this afternoon.
