HCS Bham Corporate Challenge
HCS faculty and staff warmed up together before the 5K challenge during the Birmingham Corporate Challenge.
Homewood City Schools’ employees and families showed up at Railroad Park in full force for the Birmingham Corporate Challenge at Railroad Park this summer. HCS faculty and staff members competed against corporate America and some of the biggest companies in the Birmingham Metro area.
HCS had 86 employees competing in the challenges, and well over 100 people participating including family members of Homewood employees. The family-oriented event featured battles between companies of similar size including games of tug of war, dodgeball, a 5K run and fitness walk, corn hole and rock climbing, as well as T-shirt contests and charity fundraising.
HCS cross-country and track students even came out to cheer on their teachers on the 5K course.
HCS was sponsored by The Movement, HCS’s program designed to change the way students and staff members think about health and wellness. Homewood was the only school system to participate in the event.
