The camp centered around results through teamwork that included numerous challenges that had the athletes thinking of ways to accomplish their tasks as a team. Each challenge had consequences and also the rewards of receiving a key to open a treasure chest at the end.
Some of the challenges included a zip line from 50 feet, save the treasure chest, a catwalk across a pole 50 feet in the air, the flying squirrel, the cable walk, and the water bucket challenge.
Trusting each other and carefully working together while climbing was one of the activities at a recent Challenge Camp attended by Cherokee Braves senior football players. Photo contributed
"We will use this as inspiration throughout the upcoming season," said Coach Bruce Dagel.
