By

DM Injury Law had a wonderful time participating in the 2025 KC Corporate Challenge! From winning “Best Team Spirit” at the kickoff event to medaling in various activities, it’s fun and rewarding being a law firm that emphasizes community involvement.

Take a look at how we did this year!

What is the KC Corporate Challenge?

The Kansas City Corporate Challenge (KCCC) is the largest corporate Olympic-style event in the U.S., promoting fitness, teamwork, and community among Kansas City businesses since 1980.

Growing from 18 to 160 companies and over 30,000 participants by 2024, KCCC offers a wide range of events, from recreational activities like darts and fishing to competitive sports like softball and swimming.

The games promote employee morale, teamwork, and networking while encouraging healthier lifestyles through fitness and recreation.
