Hey,
I'm the Brother Mentor Challenge coordinator at Illinois Beta. We redesigned our Epsilon Challenge a few years back while I was running it as an undergrad and we saw a lot of success (we had 8 brothers to through to BM within the first year of its implementation). I based our program off of, I think, Minnesota Alpha's program. I'll upload a copy of our program to DropBox when I get home so you guys can look it over.
The best things we've found to build motivation are:
1) Making Challenge Requirements a part of our Epsilon Meetings. The first 10-15 minutes of a meeting manage Challenge business and announcements. Then we go into the Meeting event.
2) Posting a tracker where everyone can see it. This builds competition between Challenge members and creates accountability. Make it big so you can read it easily and put bit red check marks with sharpie on it.
3) Have their challenge mentors play a role in game-planning with them. When Epsilons do their monthly goals they then have to sit down with their mentors and go over the Epsilon Challenge checklist from The Quest. The mentor talks about when the Epsilon wants to go through to BM and they set a goal to get a certain number of the things on the list accomplished that semester based on the deadline they set together.
