Employees, spouses and retirees from 43 area companies are set to compete in the City of Richardson’s Corporate Challenge, an annual Olympic-style corporate recreation event that is celebrating its 25th year. The 2023 competition begins Aug. 11 at Huffhines Park with the opening ceremony and The Great Walk, the first event where participants can earn points. A parade featuring Special Olympics athletes will also be part of the kickoff, as all proceeds from Corporate Challenge benefit Special Olympics Texas.
The competition takes place over 10 weeks at local venues including City recreation centers and parks, as well as UT Dallas, with more than 20 games and sports ranging from cornhole and dominoes to flag football and pickleball.
