Get the kids to make Valentine's cards for each other. Then, on the day itself, after all the cards had been exchanged and new little romances were being kindled...a great big Valentine's party.
This part was step one.
The cafeteria tables were all stocked up with any of the craft supplies they could possibly need, gathered from every corner of the island. There was colored construction paper (a must for homemade Valentine's cards), markers, glue, glitter, deliberately only childproof scissors, little beads and gems for decorations - nearly anything they would want or need when making Valentine's cards and Valentine's party decorations. On one table was even a pin/button maker, which had been a pretty exciting discovery.
"There's snacks too, if you're hungry! Wash your hands in the kitchen," Caroline would cheerfully remind everyone as more arrived, pointing to chips and popcorn and a large pile of Starburst candies, which was inexplicably missing only the yellow ones. And because handling over a hundred teenagers wasn't a big enough task already, there were also a few two-liters of various sodas.

Tl;dr:
-Come make Valentine's cards for each other, for yourself, for your friends and parents back home, or just make decorations for their Valentine's Day party!
-Just assume the materials they need are available (within reason, nothing like swarovski crystals obviously)
-Snacks and drinks are available, please don't just steal them and run off but she won't stop you if you REALLY NEED TO DO THAT
-If they need some suggestions of who to make cards for, assume they're given this list: YOURSELF, [every division leader's name here], Mark, Lucky, Rep, Gale
