Manchester Challenge Event
On Sunday 22nd October 2006, we held our first "Manchester Apprentice-style Challenge day" for our teams from Stoke, Manchester and across Cheshire. 6 teams entered this first event, which was an opportunity for the regional 2007 team to meet up and also raise money for their oz experience trip.
The teams all met up at Victoria Station at 10.30a.m and were briefed before setting off to complete 56 tasks which included having their photographs taken with boats, fire engines, policemen, French people and even Manchester City supporters- which was no mean feat since Manchester United were playing Liverpool that day at Old Trafford.
Our teams proved to be full of high spirits and one group even accosted a canal boat owner for a picture and lets not forget the skill used in having a picture next to a Spitfire which had been moved since we set the questions. The weather held off and everyone had a great time- we look forward to doing it all over again next year!
