August 5th, 2020 By Hop Hunter

11 manly men showed in the gloom for some final birthday party prep work.  If you missed it… your bad, but all will be forgiven if you show on Saturday.  Let’s use our AO anniversary as an opportunity to reach out to those we have been missing lately.  YHC would obviously love to see a big showing on Saturday, but most importantly… hope see some of our Afton brothers that we have been missing lately.  It’s also a great time to twist the arms of an FNG you have been trying to get out.  See you all on Saturday!!!

Now back to today.  It went something like this…

 

Warm-a-rama

Mosey a lap around outside of the tennis courts, then head inside for some cage work.

SSH x20 IC,  Hillbilly x20 IC, Windmill x10 IC, Penny Pickers x10 IC, MC x20 IC, Merkins x10 IC, 5 Yurpees OOO, Slap Jacks x20 IC. Slap Jacks added due to lack of clapping during Penny Pickers.  Obviously the pax needed practice.
