Challenge Day, Scott Rodman

Challenge Day at Fond du Lac High was held Nov. 26th & 28th. They had 92 students the first day and 108 the second day.  Scott is the local coordinator. He was on the committee in 2009, 2010 and 2017. Both Vicente and Ben were participants as freshman in those programs and volunteers the last two years.   Challenge Day is an inter-active Anti Bulling Workshop to break down the walls of separation, isolation and loneliness that young people experience and to create an ambiance encouraging honest communication about issues that divide them. The first Challenge Day was held in Livermore California in 1987. The founders were our facilitators this year. Challenge Day was held in the small gymnasium of the high school. They were be led by these two highly trained facilitators from the California. They host hundred students and thirty adult volunteers per session.
