All you competitive, giving people—watch out—the teams are beginning to organize for Sussex County’s first annual Amazing Challenge, sponsored by UNITE SUSSEX. Based on the hit television reality show, the "Amazing Race," The Amazing Challenge will be a homegrown, Sussex County event that pits teams of two against each other in a competition of physical dexterity, courage, and brains. The Amazing Challenge will take place on October 9, 2010 and will focus on Dewey, Rehoboth and Lewes—for starters.
The Amazing Challenge’s teams can be made up of anyone—brothers, sisters, friends, family, loved ones or employees. One of UNITE SUSSEX’s partners is the Dagsboro Church of God (DCOG), and they are leading the way to team creation. DCOG’s head pastor is Kim Tephabock, who is also the chair of UNITE SUSSEX. Tephabock is encouraging other businesses and nonprofits to do what he did and encourage his employees and church members to challenge each other, all in the name of fun and charity. Businesses and individuals may become sponsors and many of the levels of giving include a team. For employer sponsors, a team will help build workplace moral, develop unity, and will use your resources effectively.
