QIC:  Gobbler and Animal House

5:15 AM          Gobbler welcomed the Pax to F3 – reminding them of the F3 Mission: Plant, Grow and Serve small workout groups of men for the invigoration of male community leadership. 

Gobbler then recited the 5 core principles of F3.  1) Free of charge 2) Open to all men.  3) Held outdoors, 4) Peer led in a rotating fashion and 5) Ends with a Circle of Trust (COT) and the credo of: we leave no man behind but leave no man where we find him.

Gobbler then informed the group that he nor Animal House are professionals and to modify as necessary. 

No official Friendly New Guy’s (FNGs) but we did have one that joined us for all but the final part of the workout.  His given name is Willie Miller.  Willie, please come back.

Warm-a-Rama  –  We moseyed to the Baseball fields for warm-a-rama.  Gobble explained that the DZ took on a sports/games montra, with Qs playing everything from baseball, soccer, football, frisbee, golf, with one even happening on the tennis courts.
