2010 FLHW "Warrior Combines" Print E-mail








From Jason Neef, the man responsible for this great event!

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!

Just wait until next year!

Jason
