The Pax were enthusiastic about a mid-summer retreat from the hot weather this AM.

The NOT SO Sweaty Barry

Leave a comment

If I missed your name, feel free to edit it in….

The weather did not agree with us, but I hope everyone had a nice evening at The Barry (aka The Sweaty Barry). I’m really not sure how a person could not have a good time with Milwaukee’s Beast and PBR being served.

Winner (repeat), Harry Carry … new traveling trophy awarded

Ruck winner (repeat), 3D … we’ll rustle up an award for the ruck winner next year

Thanks to the volunteers.

Thanks to the Rock Hill participants.

Thanks to Twister for gracing us with his presence.

Looks like we made it,

Barry Manilow
