COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
11 (1 FNG -> Swayze; there was an FNG named Penthouse following the Ruck)

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Hadn’t prepared, but asked PAX to share glimmers of hope of past month. YHC shared praise for The Seeker’s employment! Other PAX mentioned positive relationships on the important things with their M & 2.0s amidst this season. One HIM mentioned a friend who struggled with depression who now empowers others to be an encouragement to folks who are considering taking their life.

MOLESKIN:

PAX enjoyed a free tour of Starry Nights, though it was such a cheap trick as we had no access to the corndogs/funnel cakes stand or petting zoo. And the lights weren’t even lit.
