Quagmire moving to Earth Fare next Monday

Quagmire is relocating to the same startEx as sweep the leg. We have tried to keep a presence in the Steele Creek area for years since Lake Wylie launched as its own region and the PAX numbers have faded since. What used to be the middle ground has now became an island. I feel like a failure giving up on it but am greatful for the opportunity to have more time to coffeeteria after the workout and fellowship. Come out and have a cup of Steele Creeks finest coffee around Monday. See you in the gloom.

Get your $hit off my lawn

WARMUP: Tinsel handled it

THE THANG: unload heavy gear and stack in middle of parking lot. (leave no trace) Split into teams. Pick home base and designated “front yard”. Set timer between 3-4 minutes. Go. Run from home base to junk pile and grab as much gear as you can and haul it over to opposing teams base and dump it on their front yard. Repeat until nothing remains in middle and if trimmer hasn’t sounded go to your own homebase and clear the crap out of your front yard. Different rounds the completion goal varied but the results were the same.

Q point of the week is Q2.02 which is Influence:Igniting a palpable desire for movement.
Www.F3nation.com/q/influence

MARY: haven’t seen her… she must have been why that roll of carpet was so heavy.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: prayers for mental health, and to be conscious of having the best Impact (Q2.01) on others.

Honor to lead along side studs. Thanks to 3D for the opportunity and bringing the keg and other random gear. And to Tinsel for bringing all the sandbags and slam balls.
Coffee was brewed on site.
Stay frosty my friends,
Olaf

NMM:

– Fresh Prince came for his second post today. He did not break, so we presume he will be back.
– @peanutbutter was a no-show. I cried a little.
– Olaf and Johnny Utah almost kept up with Maximus and YHC, but we had a second block advantage. Basically it means they were CRUSHING it.
– Trucker only complained a little.
