All,
Evil Scout will be taking over your Saturday morning and bringing the pain at Revolution tomorrow at 7:00 am. Don’t listen to the devil on your shoulder and come on out to join us. He will be providing free survival tips along the way based on his training as an Eagle Scout. We are meeting up at the golf course parking lot until the fields are fixed and parking there is consistently open.
Lots of announcements below. Pay special attention to the announcement about Men Speak, the BBQ tonight, and the SIGNUP GENIUS FOR Qs, Evil and I will be “scouting” out new Qs after the workout.

- Revolution Park: I reached out about helping with the cleanup of the park but it is all subcontracted out.
- There will be a creek cleanup on 3/27 that I think we should all participate in. Details to follow as it gets closer.
- We also have the option to adopt the Revolution Park part of the creek. We would be required to have a cleanup at least twice a year, but would get a sign. I am gathering more information but think this is a great idea!
