NHICC, New Hampshire’s Incredible Creativity Connection (NHICC) is the 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that runs New Hampshire Destination Imagination (NH-DI), the New Hampshire affiliate of Destination Imagination (or "D.I."). The Destination Imagination Challenge Program is the largest program of its kind in the world. 

Annually, we offer seven new standards-based Challenges in STEM (truly STEAM), Improvisation, Visual Arts, Service Learning, and Early Learning. Each Challenge is open-ended and enables student teams to learn and experience the creative process from imagination to innovation. Academic tournaments take place around the world where teams have the opportunity to present their solutions to trained Appraisers. Students have fun and gain confidence in their ability to solve any challenge. In the process, teams learn 21st century skills (creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, communication, citizenship and confidence) to build on their unique strengths. “DI” is unique in that these solutions must be fully solved and created by the team members alone.

New Hampshire Destination Imagination administers the DI program for nearly 3,000 Granite State students from over 200 schools and community groups. Teams meet in March to try and advance to Destination Imagination Global Finals in May.

Each summer, we welcome campers to six days and five nights of fun along one of New Hampshire’s most beautiful lakes. Our goal is to empower our campers to approach life’s challenges with confidence, by honing their creative and critical thinking skills, leadership skills, problem solving abilities, and teamwork.
