ANNOUNCEMENTS: 8/3 Ruck-n-Float–see channel and register; 911 Stairclimb–sign up will be available this weekend
COT: The 9/11 attack was three-fold, as it was 1) an attack on our nation, 2) attack on our community, and 3) an attack on our way of life. The 9/11 attackers were influenced by symbolism. In F3, we are not merely guys who work out together, we are symbols.. We are symbols of male leadership in this community. It will be very symbolic for us to get a lot of guys to come out this September. Please talk to fellow PAX and make arrangements with your M. Let’s get 100 guys down there. Register in July. Your early registration will itself be a symbol. SYITG!
