Numbers and names. Announcements:
Breaking Bread continues – Thanks to Vandelay and Gumbo for staffing the kitchen this weekend and to Oyster for making sure it happens.
The Bridge – Upchuck wants everybody in F3RVA to consider coming to The Bridge and new people to take on the task of leading – the catch is you need to have attended at least one workout as a PAX member to understand the protocols. The gist – carpool from a central location in the Richmond area to Buckingham, VA, which is out near Charlottesville, for a 7:30 workout with the residents of The Bridge Ministry on a Saturday morning. Share in coffeeteria with the residents and some PAX from the Charlottesville area, and head back to Richmond, typically by way of the Cumberland Diner. Expect to arrive back in town about 10:30 – 11:00am.
Reach out to Upchuck if you want to go or lead and start coordinating a trip. YHC is looking to lead a contingent to the Bridge towards the end of October and will be looking for a few good men to join.
YHC took us out.
Thanks to everybody who came out and let me lead even with the threat of heavy rain in the forecast. We showed up ready for the whatever came our way for 60 minutes. SYITG.
