Groups can sign up for opportunities to minister through service and prayer in the afternoons.
- Prayer outreach is intercessory and evangelism based outreach utilizing prayer stations and prayer walking. Training is provided.

Take learning to a new level with a variety of labs that provide students with practical skills for the other 51 weeks of the year.
During scheduled rec times (afternoon and evenings), we offer open play in a variety of games. Students are welcome to come and go as they please.
In the afternoon on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, we host organized tournaments. Sign-up for daily tournaments will happen each day when students arrive at the recreation area. (Some of these games will also be available during evening open play.) In past years, we have offered tournaments in volleyball, ultimate frisbee, soccer, kickball, basketball, Mario Smash Brothers, and Mario Kart.
Stay tuned for Challenge 2022 recreation options!
