CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I recently spent a week in Folley Beach, SC and traveled up to Charleston for a couple of days.  What really struck me about Charleston was the history of the town and the preservation of many old buildings.  This inspired me to learn a little more about Maryville.  So here’s a start on that journey.

Fort Craig, which was located on Pistol Creek, was the first settlement in the area which is now the City of Maryville.  The fort craig spring landmark is located on the greenway near the Blount county chamber of commerce. The fort was built in 1785 to protect settlers from Indian attack. The City of Maryville was established on July 11, 1795. Maryville was named in honor of Mary Grainger Blount, wife of Governor William Blount. The county was named in honor of Governor Blount. Almost a year later, on June 1, 1796, the State of Tennessee became the 16th state in the Union,

The other PAX completed their respective exercises and couldn’t move on to the next exercise until the COD PAX finished. Once completed, then each PAX rotated clockwise to the next station.

THA-THANG:
We played a game of Uno.  Each player had to do the exercise based on the card the previous player played.  After completing the exercise, that player then plays a card.  Only special cards could be played before doing an exercise.  Each color represented a different exercise.  The number shown on the card determined how many reps.  While player is away doing exercise the remaining players rotated doing: step ups, squats, wall sits.

  • Blue: burpess on bridge closest to pavilion
  • Red: sprints on bb court.  Baseline to baseline = 1
  • Yellow: Box cutters on bridge by softball fields
  • Green: pull ups on playground

 

  • Skip: play to pass the exercise to the next player
  • +2: next player draws 2 cards and must do 2 extra reps of the last exercise card played
  • Reverse: play order reverses and the player who just played must do the exercise on the card he played
  • Wild: must do one rep at each exercise station
  • Wild +4: must do 4 reps at each exercise station and draw 4 cards

Dark and difficult times lie ahead – theQuotes.me

This is so true in life!  What is right is often hard.  What is easy may not always be best for you or those around you.  This is one of the main reasons we get up between 4:45-5:00 AM to meet.  Doing difficult things makes you better.  Take time in life to question whether you are doing something because it’s right or because it is easy.
