TYA showed up on crutches. We had a late comer from Charleston SC, Chaka, join us. (A good idea is to stay around the flag and do the warm-up before taking off. Another good idea is to bring your flag! Our late comer saw the flag and spotted us around the back of the school.) Hitchhiker was disappointed we didn’t play pickleball. Everyone got introduced to Mike Tyson; the exercise, not the Man.

At 0529 Fergie pulls up, so then there were 3. With SOJ Takeover happening this week it was clear out Q was not coming (YHC hopes the original Q is ok), so YHC took the Q. Mosey to the Recess Blacktop for a COP of various exercises. With a pax of 3 we quickly assembled for a Triple Check. P1…
