This summer, we’re embracing the theme of Rise to the Challenge—helping kids push past obstacles, embrace resilience, and reach new heights through exciting, interactive programming!
Challenge yourself and your peers with fast-paced, team-based challenges that build creativity, confidence, and resilience. This highly interactive activity period features improv games, storytelling, and group-based competitions that reinforce teamwork and problem-solving—all while keeping kids laughing and engaged.
This high-energy, interactive game show isn’t just about competition—it’s about rising to the challenge. Participants earn achievement badges as they navigate different levels of gameplay, testing their problem-solving, resilience, and teamwork skills. Designed to push kids beyond the “trophy generation” mindset, Challenge Mountain encourages participants to embrace effort, learn from setbacks, and work together to reach the summit!
Step into the heartbeat of NYC with this unique, four-part performance series. Using state-of-the-art media screens and projection, participants will build a metaphorical skyscraper, where each level represents a new summit of engineering, entrepreneurship, resilience, and creativity. With hip-hop beats, pop culture, STEM-based problem-solving, and improv-driven fun, this program is as dynamic and vibrant as the city itself!
