Description
Our Inspire week worked with Durango Young Progressives. Our goal was to further engage the youth of Durango in politics. The Durango Youth Progressives work to push political knowledge to youth of Durango. We did this by organizing an Ice skating event where you can preregister to vote.
Reflection
Sophomore Inspire Week Reflection
Learning
One thing that they tried to teach me was, there is a lack of a young political presence in Durango. I had to strongly disagree, I feel that there is already a young strong political scene in Durango. As the day carried on I was really surprised how well the my group was working together considering that we all didn’t really know each other. The group dynamic seemed to be divide and concur. We did end up organizing an Ice skate vote night to where people can pre register to vote at the event.
Career and Future
The main thing that I learned about myself this sophomore inspire week was that if I have a office job I won't live for long. I realized that I need to be outside or I drive myself up the wall. I feel like I didn't realize this during the exploration days because we weren’t actually in a working environment. Now that I’ve experienced that I realized that I need a job where I can be active. I feel this correlates with me being extremely active and energetic.
