Convergence & Operation Sweet Tooth

ATTENTION ALL PAX (no grinches)….

Saturday, Dec 2 presents two unique opportunities for the PAX of the Gastonia region to come together for an epic beat-down. Both Folsom and The Fighting Yank will be closed so all able bodied men can attend the workouts to be led by Freight and Tool Time. For those nursing injuries or wanting to take it at a slower pace – Rudolph will have you covered with The Pain Lab. Rest assured you’ll get a good sweat with kettle bells and other core strengthening work.

Beyond the workout is a bigger reason to post: Operation Sweet Tooth. This will be our second year to support the creation of F3 Olive, who lost his daughter to an illness in 2016 but out of the sadness created the campaign that carries on her memory by giving to others. In this season of giving, F3 Gastonia will once again partner with the Gastonia Boys and Girls Club to make this Christmas a little brighter. Below is a list of items recommended to donate. Cash and gift cards are welcomed as well.

We plan to deliver the gifts to the Boys & Girls club in person on Tuesday, December 12 at 4:00 PM.  We will meet in the parking lot at the Gastonia Boys & Girls Club located at 310 S. Boyd Street in Gastonia. We want as many PAX as possible to be present to present presents (wow… did I actually just do that?).

So head over to the Schiele Museum on Garrison Boulevard and get there prior to 0700 to join a large circle of your brothers. Find some time this week to do some shopping and bring you gifts for collection.
