Category: Preblast

Highlights for the week: It’s GrowRuck week (finally!) and we have five VQs (Jailbait, Rapunzel, Beaker, Book It, and Murdock). There are a few open Q slots this week. Reach out to your AOQ to help out! Saturday schedule is different due to GrowRuck – please read the event preblast and schedule below.

New Region Plants:
The mission of F3 is to plant, serve, and grow men’s workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership. We’ve been doing awesome planting new AOs in the Memphis area, and now we’re extending further out. In October, we’ll have the chance to help launch in Martin, TN. Join the #plant channels in Slack to get in on the action. We’re also targeting Little Rock and Jackson, TN.

GrowRuck 12, September 21-23:
You’re running out of time! You’ll likely never have the chance to experience this again with 50 of your best buds. It will be a loooong time before GrowRuck comes back to Memphis, if ever.

Read the updated, official event preblast here. This includes the full weekend schedule. Register here! 

All 3 F’s will be out in full force. We sent nine HIM to Chattanooga last year for GrowRuck 05, and we all came home with stronger bonds as brothers, lots of personal lessons, and a greater appreciation of F3’s mission/vision and the IMPACT we can have on Sad Clown Syndrome in our community.

You’re running out of time to get registered for GrowRuck. Get going!

Highlights for the week: Two VQs (Popeye and Cataract), King of the Bluff, Iron PAX, we’re launching the Ruins (Tom Lee downtown – every Thursday), and City Ruck Tour is Friday night, benefiting OEW.

Iron PAX Challenge:
We’re joining other F3 regions across the nation in a little friendly competition: who is the fittest PAX of them all. There will be weekly, timed challenges, and each PAX who participates will report his own results. Check Slack for more details. Cheesesteak is our Iron PAX Q.

New Region Plants:
We have the privilege of helping two new regions get off the ground. The mission of F3 is to plant, serve, and grow men’s workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership. We’ve been doing awesome planting new AOs in the Memphis area, and now it’s time to start branching out. In August, we’ll be helping launch F3 in Mobile, AL. Martin, TN launch has been pushed to October. Join the #plant channels in Slack to get in on the action.

F3 Mobile: Launching 8/18
Bottomless will Q 8/25 – Joining him are O Positive and Four Eyes.

F3 Martin: Launching in October
Memphis will Q dates are TBD. Free lodging will be available.

We’re also leading a Black Ops workout in Little Rock in the hopes of launching there soon – 8/25, Q’d by Bruce and Soybean

GrowRuck 12, September 21-23:
Registration is open! Go pay your deposit!  We are potentially being capped at 70 PAX unless registration jumps quickly in the next couple of weeks. Go ahead and HC. This is one time when FOMO is real and justified. You don’t want to be that guy the week after GrowRuck hearing all of our stories and lessons learned.

All 3 F’s will be out in full force. We sent nine HIM to Chattanooga last year for GrowRuck 05, and we all came home with stronger bonds as brothers, lots of personal lessons, and a greater appreciation of F3’s mission/vision and the IMPACT we can have on Sad Clown Syndrome in our community.
