Summer Events Recap & Upcoming CBGC Events...

Hello Everyone,

There are a lot of great things happening at Challengers!

An eventful summer included a special visit from U.S Attorney General Eric Holder and exciting annual events (Pancake Breakfast, Expo Walk and Sports Day). Also, two amazing fundraising events were held in September, raising over $83,000 combined: the 3rd Annual Champions of Education Golf Tournament and the 3rd Annual J Rock Benefit Concert (to view pictures from these events, please click the links below).
