The YMCA Corporate Challenge is a one day event for all, with games for the body and the brain.

NEW THIS YEAR!

This year there will be several new and exciting changes to the Corporate Challenge.  Without giving away all the surprises, just know this year we will be pushing teams mentally as well as physically.  We also looked to up the fun factor by adding some hungry, hungry hippos…  and of course we will as always have a focus on networking! Entrance fees will go to supporting the YMCA Caring for the Community scholarship campaign. Each team will be provided with all equipment needed for the challenges, breakfast, lunch, water, and a commemorative team photo.

The day will include a light breakfast, an opening activity, various physical events, lunch, and a closing ceremony. A typical event is made up of fun activities such as water events, and other team building challenges. Teams will decide who will participate in each event, but all members of the team must participate in at least one event. Clothing attire for challenge participants should be typical athletic/workout clothing.

WINNING OF EVENTS

Each event will have a scoring/tournament system in order to determine the winners. The team who tallies up the most points by the end of the day will be declared the winner.
