11.01.2022 UC Update! Hello from all of us at the Urban Challenge! We hope you and your loved ones are going ok in such an unpredictable time. We wanted to keep you all informed as to where were at and what weve been up to.... The Urban Challenge has always pushed the boundaries of what a traditional school camp should look like, and were taking this time of isolation to brainstorm ideas that will continue to break down that traditional mould. Were developing tools, activities and challenges that will give students the opportunity to learn mental, emotional and physical life skills in a new and dynamic way. Therell be progressive updates to come! Stay safe and healthy! UC Team
