We will be traveling by human powered boat on the longest undammed stretch of the Catawba River. The trip will begin at the Lake Wylie Dam and conclude in Great Falls, SC. This will be an overnight trip and involve camping on an island only accessible by water. This is a sizeable distance to paddle and should prove a challenge for all Pax.This event will have great opportunities for 2nd and 3rd F. If you would like to attend and do not possess the proper gear we will help you locate things to borrow. We should have enough time to take some shorter training runs to prepare everyone with the proper knowledge of the river to be successful. Please stay tuned for further details, training opportunities, and gear lists. This is going to be a memorable event!

Summary
  • Embark Early Saturday morning
  • Paddle to island campsite approximately 24 miles downstream
  • Camp overnight
  • Sunday short worship at camp
  • Paddle approximately 13 miles to take out

2nd Annual Hog and Coyote #H&C2015

  • QIC: WWL/Pusher
  • When: 6/20/15
  • Pax: All men of F3 who would like to celebrate Fathers Day with a CSAUP.
  • Posted In: CSAUP

The Fort is proud to announce the 2nd Annual Hog and Coyote multi leg CSAUP event to be held on June 20th beginning at 6 AM. This event will help to celebrate Fathers Day weekend. This year, we will include AOs from the Fort, Tega Cay and finish in Rock Hill (Yes, I said Rock Hill!)

The H and C takes its roots after a recent SC bill passed into law that allows night hunting of wild hogs, coyotes and armadillos. Our inaugural run included 8.4 miles, 4 AOs and 17 faithful Pax. Our route this year includes 5 AOs, approximately 12-13 miles and we expect AT LEAST double the number of Pax. The route includes the following AOs:

  • Start – Ballroom (Q – Change Order)
  • Golden Corral (Q – Jekyll)
  • Slow Burn  (Q – Hard Drive)
  • WEP (Q – MacGyver)
  • Finish – The Patriot (Q – Peach)

This year there will be (3) ways to participate:

  1. 1 Man Wolfpack – Run the whole thing yourself. Sure, its a CSAUP event, what the heck!
  2. 2 Man Relay – Similar to BRR or Palmetto 200, we will go “cannonball run” style (young guys, please Google it) with a 2 man team. Handoffs will occur at each AO and at the mid point between WEP and the Patriot. Basically, each man will run about a total of (2) 5k runs over the course of the route
  3. The Armadillo – Whatever you decide from #1 or #2, the route from WEP to the Patriot will be timed. Fastest man (or 2 man team) for this portion is awarded the Armadillo. Eligible participants must have completed the entire route.

More details:

Estimated Completion Time: 2-3 Hours depending on pace

Logistics: Launch from Ballroom at 6 AM. Each AO will have (2) Qs who will lead 10-15 minute workouts. Water stations will be provided on the route. There will be drinks and snacks provided at the completion of the race.

T shirt: If there is enough interest, we can make a t shirt for the event. Its not like we don’t have enough. It will not be black.

If you have any questions, please send them to thefortf3@gmail.com.
