NMS: Apart from YHC, today’s Forge Anniversary party hosted an entirely different dozen than 5 years ago – amazing how many PAX have enjoyed the Forge over the last 5 years! Lots of positive commentary about the rapid fire pain fest, and a few raised eyebrows bringing back the Squerkins. YHC is extremely thankful to such an amazing band of brothers that regularly attend and help lead the Forge. Let’s keep the momentum going to grow SOJ! Yours, DTH
