Circle of Trust

I wanted to speak about the FNG Drive for 25, I explained the concept.  From June 2nd until June 30th there are 25 days worth of available bootcamps and we, SLT, wanted to incorporate us attempting to get 25 FNG’s during this stretch of time.  I asked the PAX to describe with 1 word what F3 has meant for them, accountability, friendship, strength, motivation, discipline, and family were some of the responses that were mentioned.  I spoke on how there are 10 of us out here this morning, and for them to look around at their neighbors, if we were to ask one of them to come out, there’d be 20 of us out here, we all have atleast 10 neighbors and we should make an effort to bring them out.  See for me, F3 is, it just is, it’s part of my life now.  Any time we are invited to a party the first thing my sons ask me is if I’m going to talk about F3 and try to invite guys out.  My answer is YES, yes I am!

After 2 weeks I noticed we were getting much traction and I thought how could I support this initiative?  So I started with my contacts list on my phone and went down the list to see who I haven’t invited out and I came across Juan’s name, I invited him out Monday evening and he showed up Tuesday night to El Coyote and was promptly named Popeye.  He got hooked immediately and returned on Thursday and Saturday!

I encourage PAX to think of creative ways to get FNG’s out, whether it’s reaching out to a neighbor or going through your phone book.

Positive feed back on the Q, good use of the entire AO.
