You can learn more about each activity by reading the description.
• Click the star located in the top right corner of each image to indicate that you are interested in

2019 Corporate Challenge presented by Chick-fil-A BirminghamFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Are spouses, friends, or children of employees allowed to participate in the events at the Corporate
Challenge presented by Chick-fil-A Birmingham? We encourage all of your family and friends to come out
and enjoy Corporate Challenge. There will be plenty of activities for all family members including a free Family
Fun Zone, however only the employees of companies who have signed up are able to actually participate in the
events and award points towards their teams score. Family members may choose to participate in the bike,
walk, or run, and some of the other events, as long as they complete a waiver.
2. Will there be food and drinks available at Corporate Challenge? There will be plenty of water and sports
drinks in order to keep all of the athletes hydrated at each event throughout the day. There will be food and
other drinks available for purchase throughout the day as well. Catering services including food, alcoholic and
non-alcoholic beverages for company tents will be provided if ordered ahead of time, so please reach out to
Daniel (daniel@knighteady.com) if you have any specific questions.
3. Do all of the employees need to sign up online? Yes, we will need all of the individuals from your company
to sign up for Corporate Challenge on the event website which will prompt them to sign the electronic waiver.
We will not monitor which events the individuals sign up for. It is the responsibility of the company to ensure
that the appropriate number of people are present for each event.
4. Is there a limit to how many events each person can participate in? An individual should not compete in
more than four of the competitive events (which are all events apart from the 5K Run and Fitness Walk, Jump
Rope and 10K Bike Stroll) in order to allow as many people to participate as possible. We ask that the company
help us manage this expectation because we will not be able to verify with every single person.
5. What can companies bring to their spot in the Athlete Village? Participating companies will have a 10 x 10
tent and table set up for them in the Athlete Village. The tent will be labeled with the company name. You can
bring tailgate chairs, snacks, water and fans. However, you cannot bring a branded tent or any other activation
items including a table skirt, because that is reserved for sponsors only.
6. What if we do not have enough participants to compete in all of the events? You are not required to have
the maximum amount of participants compete in each event, and you are not required to compete in each
event. However, you will not have the ability to earn points if you choose not to participate.
7. How will teams earn points by donating to the event philanthropy, Redemptive Cycles? Teams can earn
points by making monetary donations, attending Trample rides and spreading the word about Redemptive on
social media.
8. Will we be expected to pay for anything? The only items that employees may need to pay for will be food
and drinks, unless their company chooses to order the food and alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks ahead of
time.
9. How many people does a team really need to participate in Corporate Challenge? You probably need at
least 20 people in order to compete and have a chance to win. Remember, if you are a company that has 25 or
fewer employees, you can combine with another company of similar size to enter a team. However, smaller
teams are welcome to be involved even if they know they may not have enough employees for each event,
because they care about being active and offering a fun event for their employees!
