When a group needs to be surprised: Reason #5

Sometimes it is difficult to get teens, especially high school aged youth, to try something new, something different. Often, the only way to introduce a new and valuable activity is to spring it on them.

When youth have done a project once, it is much easier to get them to do it again, as a regular feature of their lives.
