BullHorn:
- 3rdF (Faith) opportunity: We’re raising funds for Safe Families that will be our “buy in” to the FitTest on November 23rd. Safe Families is an amazing organization that finds homes for children as their families transition through some of the harder seasons of life. Knowing Nimbus, I’ve seen first hand the good that this organization does and the hope that it provides to children that would otherwise have none. Winner of FitTest gets 60% of all for their charity with 10% going to the other 4 regions. Let’s be going HARD for this charity. Please join me in raising funds for this very worthy cause and lets go win this thing.
- We already have a $1k donation from a generous benefactor that we’ll reveal later, but its up to all of us to grow this and earn as much as we can to bless the Middle Tennessee Region. Any raised funds can be sent to the @F3Nolensville Venmo account or can be handed over in another fashion to Numbtucks.
- 2ndF (Fellowship) opportunity: IronClad victors and friends (who buy a drink for a victor) Happy Hour reception at Brother’s Burger Joint in Nolensville from 4-7pm tomorrow (Tuesday, 11/5/19)
- 1stF (Fitness) opportunity: The Gauntlet is coming this Saturday, November 9th! Please help us promote this and let’s all plan to be in attendance, as we’ll play host to some out-of-towners! Start and end at Nolensville High School. About 5:30 to 8:30pm. This one will be totally different from our last Gauntlet. Bring your own water and endurance needs (salt-tabs, gels/goo, etc) Come out and get sharpened…
What We Learned:
-
- Recent FNG “PotLuck” and sponsor Jeeves had an epiphany about Minnesotan culture and was renamed “HotDish”
- Staples Snorts Coffee to see if it will get him high…
- OldHickory uses others for pacing and may need Siri to help count reps 😉
- Veterans Day is next Monday. Let’s keep the sacrifices and efforts of others that benefit us and allow us to enjoy the freedoms we do in mind. In application, we did a Hero Workout of the Day (WoD)
- GlenGarry is an eager VQ Beaver and signed up for not only one, but 2 Q’s. Let’s come out in force and support him at BrokenWheel tomorrow & the Pound Thursday.
- SpeedRucking is on schedule with NumbTucks Wed. at 5am at RuckU. Come find out what that means. We have 7 rucks as a region currently. Nimbus with the lion’s share. Jansport+bricks also works…
- I can often see F3 as an escape of sorts where I come to have fun and be sharpened (which is appropriate) but have found that I need to see it as a training ground for my other leadership roles that are more important (Discipleship, Marriage, Fatherhood, Employment, etc). I see our beat-downs and conversations as opportunities to learn how to be humbled, challenged, get knocked down and endure, be mocked and yet persevere, to love in hard times and to receive the care of others when my pride would rather not… Let’s be less sensitive personally, more sensitive externally and work hard while expecting the same and holding others to that same standard. LET’s GO!
3D, OUT!
