Teen Mental Health Awareness Weinke

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
Run to WEP

THE THANG:
Approx 14% of teens suffer with mental health issues. That number is probably higher.

Split into 3 groups. 1 group ran clockwise around WEP twice, another ran counter, and the 3rd ran the trail down to Harris Street and back. All groups had to run their routes shuffle run style. ~mileage 1.4. Once we returned to the start, 14 burpees then switched routes.
This time each team did 7 burpees after either 1 lap around WEP, or once they got to Harris St. then 7 more after the second lap.

Only had enough time to do 1 more lap with burpees before heading back to COT.

Litter pick up – Community Svc

Leave a comment

March 18th is tentatively set as our first pick-up for the US21 adopt-a-Highway litter pickup! We will have 4 opportunities in 2023. Once a quarter is the plan.  All supplies provided ( bags, gloves, safety vests, pick up sticks, eye-wear, and fellowship) All that remains is YOU.
Plan for about 1 hour and 30 mins – 2 hours maximum. We will meet at the Harris street park around 7:45am.
We will walk up the hill to US21 and split up into 2 groups.  One group will head north to the Peachstand and back and the other group will head south to Sutton Rd and back.  (1 mile each direction)

We could use 10-12 guys to keep this an efficient and timely process. 2.0s and Ms are welcome as well as anyone who would like to participate in our community svc event.

Thank you to all who participated in 2022. Looking forward to seeing new faces as well as the HIM who assisted last year.

US 21 from the Peachstand south to Sutton Rd ( Circle K – gas station) is the road that we adopted!!
