Answer: Enough to Break The Ice.

That’s right Charlotte, for Ignite Charlotte 2 we are going to have an Icebreaker contest! Our Ice Breaker Coordinators, Joel Bonasera and Josh Mauldin (as announced on Facebook) are working diligently to make sure this contest is a great experience.

What is the Icebreaker contest? Can’t tell you. But we can tell you this-

Participants will work in teams to create something from… something else. What we can say is that there is a heavy emphasis on problem solving and creative expression with a global tint. Participants will be divided into teams, and while each team will have a specific goal, all teams will be working on a similar project.

Space will be limited to the first 36 people to join the activity.

Will there be a prize? Absolutely! We at Ignite Charlotte want to award creativity. Those that do not participate in the activity will be judges, and the winners will be decided by popular vote.

is the supporting sponsor of the Ignite Charlotte 2 Icebreaker contest.

So what are you waiting for? Go and RSVP for Ignite Charlotte and respond to the Icebreaker contest question!

Today’s leaders collaborate, inspire and inform using creative formats and new media tools. As Charlotte’s premier young professional leadership development organization, the Charlotte Junior Chamber is excited to support Ignite Charlotte, a local event that draws such a diverse group of people and passions together for mutual enlightenment. . . and a lot of fun!

Charlotte Junior Chamber

Charlotte Junior Chamber members value the opportunity to learn, develop relationships and give back to the community through strategic training events and philanthropic efforts. They are not only promoting the attendance of the Ignite Charlotte event, but will also help coordinate logistics onsite.  In addition, the Charlotte Junior Chamber will offer support to members who aspire to be Ignite speakers.

With a long history of business, individual, community and international development, going back to 1929, the Charlotte Junior Chamber chapter continuously seeks out new ways to stay on the cutting edge as a resource to the community.  2011 President, David Hoffman says, “It is by recognizing the needs and passions of our generation that today’s business and community leaders will draw out the skills and efforts needed to help make Charlotte continually known as a premier city of growth and vision. We commend the Ignite Charlotte team for bringing this international phenomenon to our city and look forward to participating in its success.”

And we’re excited to have the Charlotte Junior Chamber as part of our team!
