Corporate Challenge Celebrates 10 Years; Raising more than $92,000 over 10-year span

This year’s 10th annual Gwinnett Parks Foundation Corporate Challenge was a fun and rewarding success once again! The competition, which began on June 13 with Laser Tag and finished this Sept. 19 with a 5K Run, had 13 companies throughout Gwinnett competing in fun activities and challenges including Basketball, Billiards, Bowling, Disc Golf, Golf, Kickball, Laser Tag, Sand Volleyball, Table Tennis, Tennis, and Trivia.

This year, Cisco placed First Place in Div. A (100+ employees) and WIKA took Second Place in Div. A.

First Place in Div. B (1-99 employees) went to Rehrig Pacific Company and Second Place, Div. B to BravePoint.

Monies raised from the Gwinnett Parks Foundation Corporate Challenge go toward recreation scholarships that allow children and senior citizens an opportunity to participate in summer camps, sports programs, swim lessons, and other recreation classes who may not have been financially able to do so. Over the last 10 years, the Corporate Challenge has raised more than $92,000 toward the scholarship fund.

Major sponsors included the Gwinnett Parks Foundation, Gwinnett Daily Post, Cisco, DISH Network, Gwinnett County Parks & Recreation, Gwinnett Parks Foundation and Gwinnett United in Drug Education.
