Q School at Bermuda Triangle

The recent tidal wave of new PAX throughout the region has sent AO numbers soaring, and the VQ bells ringing. Our mission in F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership. One way we do this is rotating Q responsibilities at our workouts – giving each man opportunities to lead his peers. To support this effort, we need to provide the resources to build up these new leaders.

For three weeks in July (12th, 19th, and 26th) we’ll be having Q School at Bermuda Triangle. Three of our veteran Lake Wylie PAX will be leading the charge; sharing tips, strategy, and over a decade of combined F3 wisdom on how they Q.

Here is the schedule:

  • July 12th – Basic Q Techniques and Developing a Game Plan -> Wild Thing
  • July 19th – Q Execution and Adaptation -> Royale
  • July 26th – Advanced Qing -> Flux

As a reminder, Bermuda Triangle is from 5:00am – 5:45am. Don’t miss the boat!

Contact Homebrew or any of the Q School Professors if you have questions.

 

Stay Classy,

Homebrew

The Yeti 2019 Preblast

Alright y’all. It’s that time of year where the temps start to dip and the elusive Yeti rears it’s ugly head. The Yeti is a signature event for The Fort and this will be it’s 4th installment! As an ode to simpler times, we are going OG and using the original route with a little twist. Ruckers, Runners, Bikers and everything in between are welcome. There will be shirts! There will be patches! There will be several beatdowns!  And there will be P-A-I-N! Mark your calendars for 2/23/19! It’s on!

THANG:

Date: February 23rd, 2019
Start: 5:00 AM (Ruckers)
6:00 AM (Running Group)
6:30 AM (Run/Bike Group)
Finish: 10:00 AM (Estimate)

2nd F at Dixie Pig immediately following the event (still working this out with the restaurant)

Route
Run: Pantheon to Old Ballroom (next to Hardees on Gold Hill): 3.0 miles
Run: Ballroom to Coop/Badger Den: 3.5 miles (6.50 mi run)
Bike: Coop to Run N Gun: 6.0 miles
Bike: Run N Gun to Pantheon: 5.25 (11.25 bike)
Total: 17.75 miles (probably more like 18-19 miles)

Twist-YOU MUST READ THIS: For anyone willing to go the EXTRA #ZIMAMILE, there’s an additional patch waiting for you at Alcatraz. All you have to do is run there and back AFTER YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE YETI! Not everyone has the stones for this after 18 miles but I know there are a few stu…I mean beasts that will go for it. I mean it’s a rare patch, so…

Logistics
Ruckers: Just do your thing, you do anyways! Recommended start of 5:00 AM

Running Group: Show up to Pantheon no later than 5:45 AM for Prep and BOM. COP will starts at 6:00 AM.

Run/Bike Group: Show up at Pantheon no later than 6:15 AM for Prep and BOM. COP starts at 6:30 AM. Plan on dropping your bikes off at the Coop between 5:30-6:00 AM. Don’t hit any PAX on your way to Pantheon.

Relay Notes: If you are participating as a 2-man relay, the process is very simple. Both Pax show up at Pantheon. 1st Runner departs while the 2nd Runner drives car to the next pain station/AO. Complete the pain station as a group and then 2nd Runner departs while the 1st Runner drives car to the next station. Sounds complicated but it’s really not!

Biker Notes: Obey all posted signs and travel with traffic

The Sweati CSAUP

50 Pax posted to the inaugural summer CSAUP we call the Sweati (the evil, yet misunderstood, brother to the Yeti). Some rucked. Some ran. It was a perfect morning to get in some #zimamiles. Got to say it was quite a beatdown. If your were there, you know what happened. If you weren’t…#cobains. You’ll get your chance next summer. Until then…

The NANTANS of the The Fort and The Rock have come together to tour many of our AOs this summer to invigorate Male Leadership and emphasize the core principles of F3.

Santini, CSPAN, Pusher, Italian Job, Ponytail and Cake Boss will be hitting 8 AOs, 1 stop per week through the summer. We will announce each Sunday where the next tour stop will be.

Some of the key leadership principles will be:

  • F3 Mission
  • F3 Core Principles
  • Lexicon— things like Nantan, Weasle Shaker, 1stF, 2ndF, 3rdF
  • Leadership experiences
  • QSource

Send FNGs and bring seasoned PAX because you won’t want to miss this!

(Weasel Shakers will be reviewing all fine print and making sure everything is covered)

Preblast: Holiday Social with the CAH Guidance Youth

PAX:

We have had a GREAT year at CAH Guidance! To continue the impact of the three F’s, there will be a Holiday ‘social’ dinner with the youth from CAH Guidance.

  • WHEN: Friday December 8 at 6pm.
  • WHERE: Location is TBD pending group size, but will be at either Sakura Japanese Steak House and Sushi or Buffalo Wild Wings, both in Rock Hill.
  • WHAT: F3 will treat the CAH youth with funds already accumulated, but other PAX may be asked to pay their own way pending group size. It will be a regular menu selection at either location. Appetizers will be provided if at BWWs.
  • HOW: Please RSVP to NASA by Monday 12/4, noon, via Twitter or Facebook DM, or email at eransone@hotmail.com

This 2nd F event is a great opportunity to meet and greet the youth, let them know they matter and have some fun. It is going to be a great time, but it takes YOU to make it happen. Be the vessel thru which He works.  Please be there.

Thanks in advance,
– NASA
