The Aspen Challenge Playbook and Coaches Supplement is available to every team. The purpose of the playbook is to clarify expectations and offer tips, tools and resources for teams as you create your solution. It also offers project guidelines, milestones and contact information to ensure your success throughout the process.  Each team member was given a Playbook and the coaches have been emailed electronic versions.  Please find more resources below to complement the Playbook and help you build your solution, and don't forget to stay connected and "LIKE" our page on Facebook for updates.
