Shmedfest – August 24th at the Fairgrounds
Goofy with the Q next week at B&W, a delayed patriotic themed beatdown (see July 3rd backblast for the reason for the delay). Not to be missed!
Prayer Requests
Prayers for Bluto as he continues his recovery. He is greatly missed at this AO.
YHC took the PAX out giving thanks for the gift and blessing of another day.
NMM
-The beatdown was originally intended to take place on both of the tennis courts as the gate has never been opened by starting time during the summer. Arriving early at the AO to set up, YHC was taken aback to see that the gate was open, even earlier than it would have been if school were in session. Knowing that the PAX would astutely make this same observation and drive on in to the main parking lot, YHC had to hastily re-think the layout of the stations and placed them around the circle. Thus, the “Run a Lap” portion of the beatdown meant running a lap around the circle rather than running a lap around one of the tennis courts, a little more running than most of the PAX (YHC included) had bargained for.
– All the same, the PAX went at it really hard, strong work by all.
– YHC appreciated the push from Lace on several occasions.
– Enjoyed meeting Tigger, YHC had not worked without with him before.
– Passing the keys back to The Singing Cowboy and on to Goofy. Thanks for the opportunity ! The support of the PAX is greatly appreciated.
