ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT:
The story of cardinal is best told by others:
By our own Mathlete in the f3knoxville newsletter and other articles.
mattcrossman.substack.com/p/f3-cardinal-and-the-victory-of-broken
mattcrossman.substack.com/p/a-tribute-to-f3-cardinal-kind-down
I personally was not directly involved but got to watch (and participate) with F3 as they responded to this tragedy.
The men who were on the scene and started CPR and called for help.
The gofundme campaign that surpassed it’s goal 100x to raise over $100,000 for the family.
The more then 100 men who showed up to finish Cardinals workout and support the PAX and family.
The men who helped Cardinals family paint and move houses.
These actions demonstrated what F3 is about and why F3 not only survived this tragedy but thrived and grown through it.
I hope this story encourages you the same way it has me.
