The Tribe is Growing Stronger

Week 2: August 26 – 30

Tribe Building Continues

The heroes demonstrated perseverance during the Spider’s Web Team Challenge. Using each hole only once added to the difficulty of this task. Vienna sacrificed her own comfort to be the first to get through the hole every time the heroes had to start over. The heroes trusted one another as they were lifted off the ground and passed through the web. Touching the strings of the web required a start over every time until “a wonderful thing just happened!”

“We are going for challenges here. No comfort zones. [The Spider Web Challenge] helped people to trust one another.” – Clara

“[The heroes] built my trust back up by getting me through the web three more times.” – Ellery
