Making History at The Nest

/in /QIC:

It was a nice cool morning for a Pre-Thanksgiving beat down. 4 PAX celebrated appropriately however we missed Martini who had planned to Q but had a last-minute situation come up.

It was good to have B-I-N-G-O make his first appearance at The Nest and the return of Yosemite after several months out due to injury.

YHC “borrowed” the idea for this workout from another region with some modifications to make it work for us. Thanks for the opportunity to lead you HIM – it is a true honor.

FNGs: None

Warm Up:

Quick Mosey around the track and upon return, YHC issued the disclaimer for B-I-N-G-O along with the mission statement.

The pre-Thanksgiving workout featured the spelling of the word PILGRIMS and the rep counts honored the year of the first Thanksgiving celebration between the pilgrims and the Native Americans – 1621.

YHC neglected to do name-o-rama but instead went around the circle and each PAX shared something they were thankful for, which included families, F3 brothers, health, and God’s grace.

Announcements:

  • Frosty CSAUP Sat., Dec. 5th – see Slack/FB for details
  • Good work @ Mama’s house spreading gravel
  • Stay tuned for YHC’s week of birthday Q’s next week…
