I can't believe it. September isn't even over and the new challenges for 2025 are already appearing! So...I guess it's time to start thinking about our Challenge Addict game plans for next year. I will keep adding challenges as I find them to help you discover challenges that meet your interests.
If you find a challenge not listed here or are sponsoring a challenge yourself and would like it added, please email me at phryne1969 AT gmail DOT com and I will update the page as soon as possible.
