The Dirty Bird

Leave a comment
  • WHAT: The Dirty Bird
  • WHERE: The Epiphany School - Trent Road Campus
  • WHEN: 9/12/18 - gather 5:20; hard start 5:30; hard stop 6:15
  • WHO: Pax, fartsackers, sad clowns, happy clowns, HIMs, Kool Aid Drinkers, FNGs, etc....
  • WEATHER: Exciting and probably wet
  • WHY: Be an inaugural member of The Dirty Bird


      • F3NewBern Pax – This pre-blast is coming to you early since I have not put together a formal announcement as Bitcoin did for Ruck It.

      To alleviate the pressures of our pax growth and to reduce the number of pax at each AO, an alternate AO has been added to Wednesday’s schedule. F3 theory being, too many pax in one AO is too much of a good thing. Actually, it diminishes the amount of the second F, Fellowship, as well as some exercises are just too crowded.

      This Wednesday will be the inaugural session of The Dirty Bird at The Epiphany School’s upper school campus at 2301 Trent Road.

      This AO will be a bootcamp style workout in the same spirit of Bushwood. I will be the site Q and thus looking for and/or signing up pax to Q at this site each week. This week should create a lot of excitement with the new AO as well as the impending weather event. There may be a correlation…

      This AO is a little closer to home for some pax and may help reduce the amount of mid-week fartsacking. Bring an FNG to help push you back to consistent posting.

      Any questions, reply to this preblast or text me directly (229-9225).

      Looking forward to the new AO and the opportunity to continue the growth of F3NewBern.

Shirt Order is Live!

Leave a comment

Ok, pre-order page is up and ready to go.

F3 New Bern Shirt Pre-Order

Couple of things to note that some of us missed on the last go. There are multiple options to choose from which can be selected in the Shirt drop down underneath where time remaining is listed. If you don’t change this, you might get a sleeveless shirt whether you want one or not.

Also, it’s not how many orders get placed, but how many shirts are purchased by all who order. For example, if I were to order 1 shirt, then Unicorn could order 11 and that would meet the minimum for the shirts to go to print.

For reference if it helps at all, I am 5’10” 160 and I wear a Small Sport-Tek Shirt and Medium MudGear Fitted Race Jersey. I also have a Small 1/2-Zip pullover that fits me well and is of suprisingly good quality. Use that as you will.

There also appears to be one Large sized Long Sleeve Mud Gear Race Jersey available in clearance for $10 off. Get it while you can.

The link is in this post and will stay in the Announcements section of the Backblasts page (right side of the page on Desktop and bottom of the page on Mobile). Any other questions, just let me know.

Happy ordering,
Roboto

Cottle Park Contribution

2 Comments

PAX: As there seemed to be sufficient interest in donation by credit/debit card, the Go Fund Me page is live and ready to accept our contributions towards Give Grow Foundation’s fund for Cottle Park. Link can be found on the side bar on the Backblast page as well as in this post. If it is your preference, checks and cash will be collected by Bubble Guts, so please bring your donations to an AO that you expect BG will be in attendance (I believe you would make your checks out to BG himself, BG, please confirm in comment section below).  I would suggest that there is no need that this be limited to just our Pax, as anyone who would like to donate on our behalf would be welcome since there will be many to benefit from the success of this campaign and the park.

F3 Contribution towards Cottle Park

Thanks for your support.
