Words of Wisdom

It’s been three years since the launch of The Aerie. It’s been four years YHC started working out with F3. It’s been a lot of time in the gloom, a lot of situps, pushups, and passes back and forth across this field. As a reminder to myself…

“The Mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership”
I am thankful for this past year and the seasons of growth we each have gone through together. I’m honored to be a part of this place, to be a part of your life. Here’s to the next year!
