The Eco Challenge Adventure Race is a team competition for UNH student organizations. Similar in format to Eco Challenge races growing in popularity around the world, teams composed of six members must work together to successfully complete several team challenges in an attempt to outperform their competitors. First and foremost, the race is meant to provide a fun and exciting approach to organizational development. By participating, teams will actively explore topics such as developing leadership potential, teambuilding, open communication, goal setting, and values. In the end, participants will be able to apply what they've learned back to their student organizations.

No previous outdoor education experience required for participants!

Co-Sponsored by the UNH Leadership Center and Campus Recreation.
