Litter pick up – Community Svc

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!!

How to quiet a group of talkers by Anchorman

WARMUP:

Mosey up to pharmacy, plank for 6.

4 or 5 exercises in and the mumble chatter was becoming a bit distracting.

5 burpees oyo to calm the conversations beast only seemed to inflame it.

So we headed to the adjacent parking lot to do 10 decline merkins in one curb, bear crawl across parking lot to the opposite curl to do 9 incline merkins then crawl bear back to other side to do 8 declines etc etc

Exuberance replaced by grumbling.

Run to top of Massey Street hill to parking lot to pair up for BOMBS…

Run to other end of parking lot while partner was knocking through a portion of 200 each…
