For the GateWay program that Strider is going through, the boys were tasked to demonstrate leadership abilities by planning an event. Strider and his friend Andrew chose to organize a "Strong Man Competition" for boys ages 8-15, and this morning was the big day.
We went up to watch for part of it (and to bring rice-krispie treats) and it looked like it was a great time! The boys had 7 events lined up, some team activities (like tug of war and a dead-weight tow relay), and some for individuals (like a canon-ball throw, long-jumping contest, and a running race). They kept a running score for all the events and the top 3 point-earners at the end were given certificates and a gift card. The weather could not have been more perfect!
