2020-21 Online Challenges
Yes! We have been hard at work on 2020-21 Online Challenges. Take a glimpse at just a few projects we would like to spotlight.
Art is one of our hidden talents. Take a look at the time-lapse of a drawing of one of our teammates on team 74177U who wished to remain anonymous. She drew this for one of the online challenges. Amazing talent, right?
2020-21 Rise Above Season
