University of Illinois Springfield officials say they will host a ribbon cutting ceremony for its new Challenge Course on October 21.
The new course will be available to athletic teams, local businesses, campus groups, and community groups, and is designed to encourage teamwork, communication, cooperation, trust, respect, and problem solving.
The course consists of several events, some of which happen on the ground, and others that utilize poles, wires, platforms, and ropes elevated a short distance from the ground.
The course requires a minimum of eight people, and has a maximum capacity of 150 people.
