Delta Connection Academy

Social activities

In an attempt to encourage camaraderie, DCA Houston has begun hosting monthly cookouts paired with an activity. Last month we went to Great Fun – a venue that has many activities such as pool tables, bowling, & arcade games just to name a few. It’s similar to Dave & Buster’s or Jillian’s. They plan to continue the cookouts at DCA and outings at various places. We’re going bowling after our next monthly meeting and we’ve talked about paintball, laser tag, and other possibilities. This allows us to meet the new students and hopefully helps them feel welcome. As mentioned in an earlier post, it's a great idea to learn by teaching others, and this is a great way for everyone to meet. This will only work if the instructors and students who have been around a while talk it up and everyone makes it a priority to attend. Also, remember that networking is very important in our field. Assuming we’re planning to complete the entire program at DCA, we’ll be working together in a year or so, and building relationships is important!
