Don’t fear the Reaper!

Rubber Ducky brought a full body pain session. Barkley showed up, “as always” his shield lock may have differing opinions. A contingent of marathon runners came by to see how the other side lives and said bell swingers are crazy. I even heard Band Camp contemplating his bell choices.

2024 The Fort Dam to Dam Fundraising Initiative

Every year, several of us enthusiastically participate in the Dam to Dam Relay. Wondering what that is? The Dam to Dam Relay is an exhilarating 100K team relay that stretches from Lake Murray Dam in Lexington, SC, all the way to Lake Greenwood Dam in Greenwood. This adventure involves teams of 6, 4, or 3 runners sharing a van over a span of 8-10 hours.

 

But, why do we embark on this journey? It’s for the fellowship, to push our limits, and to encouraging others to do the same. Over the past five years, our partnership with local charities has culminated in raising over $100,000, which has immensely benefitted our community. Notably, the efforts of dedicated HIM’s produced the F3 Fort Mill Community Scholarship, benefiting all three Fort Mill High Schools.

 

Now, it’s that pivotal moment when we push our limits and accelerate. We do this selflessly and with the hope we inspire others to do the same along the way. This year, our collaboration is with Bethel Shelters, and we’ll continue supporting the F3 Fort Mill Community Scholarship. Our ambitious goal is to raise $50,000 or more, with proceeds evenly split between the two esteemed organizations.

 

I urge you, each one of you, to join our noble cause. Whether you’re joining us on the run or simply want to partake in our exciting events, see below for more details:

 

  • **10/14**: Join our poker tournament at the Springfield Clubhouse from 6 pm-12 am, spearheaded by our brethren, Fogerty and Kaiser. New to this year!

 

  • **11/10**: The renowned BBQ and Bourbon event, masterminded by Cyclops, is up next. Whether you’re there for the bourbon or just for Wegmans’ mouthwatering BBQ, this event stands as a testament to our fundraising spirit.

 

  • **12/8**: Experience ‘Shanking with Stang’ by our unique, sock-misplacing, trail runner who may or may not disappear in the woods for a short period of time, Stang. A little trivia: he’s a southpaw, but only in golf go figure!

 

  • **1/27**: The highly anticipated Dam to Dam Bar 10k is up, brought to life by our inspirational HIMs: Hardwood, L-Train, Long Duck, Console, Floppy Disc, Harry Carry, and many others. This is truly an event of the year!

 

  • **2/2**: A novel addition this year is the wine dinner, curated by the retired Nathan Pusher. An excellent opportunity to treat your M’s as a thank-you for all the support they’ve rendered by letting you have the hall passes to attend these events.

 

  • Date TBD – Finally, we have skeet shooting, under the adept guidance of our brother, Change Order. Don’t fret about equipment; it’s all provided.

 

As we wrap up, remember to not only participate but also get your companies, neighbors, and family members involved. Introduce them to this thing we call F3 through our 2nd F events. If you have any questions or are interested in volunteering (as we consistently need assistance for our events), please don’t hesitate to reach out.

 

Thank you Men lets crush it this year!

YHC, Conerstone
