D.I.G. has been fostering STEM education among young minds for over a decade. Even though we’re in a small town and are sometimes overlooked, our programs show that dreams, no matter how small, are super important and impactful. Today, we’re excited about the awesome things our students have accomplished!

This year, the SC Future Cities competition got postponed, throwing us an unexpected curveball. But we didn’t let that stop us. Our awesome coordinator, William Shipes, decided to enter our students in Georgia’s competition instead. We faced some unexpected challenges, like our main presenter getting sick right before the event, but our team showed the strong spirit we have at D.I.G. Dreamers. We believe in facing challenges head-on with determination, and our motto, “When it seems hard, I’ll just DIG Deep!” really came to life.

Guess what? Against all the tough stuff, we snagged 2nd place! Now, we’re heading to Washington, DC, as alternates for the National competition. We even scored the student choice award, showing off the creativity and excellence of our students.

As we get ready to represent South Carolina nationally, our journey continues. This competition isn’t just about winning; it’s a story of our resilience, belief, and the unstoppable spirit of our students. We’re grateful for the support that’s guided us, and we’re excited about what’s coming next.

Want to be part of our story? Join us in spreading the word! Our journey is a tale of triumph over challenges, showcasing not just our program’s awesomeness but also the dedication of our supporters. Thank you to everyone who made this journey possible. Together, we’re not just dreaming; we’re building the future’s innovators. Follow us on social media for updates as we tackle whatever comes our way.
