My original intent for the "Warrior Combines" was simply to give
a few of us some motivation to get in shape this summer.
After an impromptu conversation with a friend about a fellow
parishioner with a life threatening illness, I realized that God
wanted us to do more. Here is the recap...
* 16 participants, highlighted by Kevin Winkley (48 yrs.)
participating right alongside his 12 year old son, Reed.
* Overwhelming charitable response from people I'm honored to
call friends, totaling over $1,500!
* Contributions from local businesses - 68 Sports, Blue
Moose, 24 hr. Fitness, Spin Pizza.
* Live news coverage on Fox, resulting in an opportunity to
raise awareness across the entire city!
* Inspiration from David Emerson, a true Warrior on what it
means to not only survive, but to thrive!
My sincerest thanks to everyone who gave without hesitation.
A special thanks to all Combine volunteers, particularly 68 Sports'
Clint Dominick who provided warmup, demonstration and instruction
throughout the event!
