Preamble:
On a bright, beautiful Saturday morning we gathered in Brooke Street Park for our annual Alpha Region Convergence with F3, FIA, and all of our 2.0s. By 7:00 am when YHC rolled up the ruckers were out and about in Alpharetta and the runners were trotting back into the quad where we all gathered to start out.
Warm-O-Rama:
After a short introduction from YHC outlining how this was supposed to go down, Rapid and Dreamer led us in a Warm-up before we dispersed to the various stations and waiting Qs.
The Thang:
Station 1: Nacho and Queso’s Deck of Death

COT:
After all Pax rotated through all three stations, we gathered back in the quad for name-o-rama. Pax stayed in their groups from the stations to help move the naming along before we circled up for the final count-off as a group.
After the count-off, Rapid and Dreamer led us in a Circle of Trust with a reading from Romans. They used the passage to describe how each of us has different gifts that we can use to help each other out and create a stronger community.
