Here are some comments from participants involved in prior challenges:

“The YMCA Corporate Challenge was an excellent team building activity for our firm.”

“It was nice to meet new people from other businesses who enjoy similar sports as you. It was good exercise that I didn’t mind doing since it was fun and that is great.”

“I enjoyed the horseshoes most. It introduced me and others to the sport itself and to the Horseshoe Pitching Club. I was not aware of the popularity of the sport in the area and the Challenge was a great way to increase public awareness of the league.”
