Walking throughout the Career Mouse, Wynton Harvey, Jonathan Sprinkles, Princeton Parker, Tracey Powell and more stopped to listen and give advice to the Dreamers.
For example, the journalism class consisted of four young ladies who were in charge of creating a flyer that would be printed out and given to the parents and other Dreamers. The ladies each had a separate task to take on and on day three, the “Career Mouse” showed off a digital version of the flyer.
In the engineering Deep Dive the Dreamers were instructed to create a ride with in a budget. The two groups of 5 or 6 students in each class had to assign roles to each of the students and work together as a team to create a ride for park customers.
