GrowRuck 30 Plainfield
What is GrowRuck?
GrowRuck is an intensive, weekend-long, event that combines F3 Leadership Development (GrowSchool) with a Rucking Completely Stupid and Utterly Pointless (CSAUP) event. The combination of F3 GrowSchool and a Rucking CSAUP event (tons of 1st and 2nd F) will catalyze and accelerate growth for the F3 Plainfield location all while creating bonds of brotherhood as several regions join together to accomplish a mission! We leave no man behind, but we leave no man where we found him! Together We Are Stronger!
Event Information
Cost

Scholarships
F3 Plainfield wants there to be no barrier to attend this event so there will be Full and Half scholarships available for those men that cannot afford. To make this anonymous, the GrowRuck Event Q (Vern) will be handling these requests personally. If you reach out, no one else will be aware of the request and there will be no application to prove the need. If you ask, you will receive. Additionally, any PAX that views gear needs (rucksack, ruck plate, etc) as a burden, Vern will help with loaner gear for the weekend.
For any scholarships or gear needs, please contact Vern (Brandon Ohms) directly via email brandon_ohms@yahoo.com or cell phone 630-544-1131.
