Father's Day News and Announcements

 
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.  If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.  If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.  Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.  Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.  Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.  For we know in part and we prophesy in part,  but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.  When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.  Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.  And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
 
Happy Father's Day to all the members of the gym who have children and to anyone else reading this blog. Thank you all for providing us with an example of how we should live and for helping us grow through love.
 
Speaking of love, I would be remised if I did not let you all know how much you will love the Tom Foolery, Ballyhoo, and all around fun and excitement that will be spreading through the gym over the next month.
 
First and Foremost, our Gable Challenge, Abolution, and Bear Club shirts are in and are ready to be picked up by any of you who completed the challenges. Great job and make sure to stay on this month's pull up challenge to become a member of the Shut Up and Pull Up Club.
 
In other news, our July 13th Open House is right around the corner and we have some star studded businesses who just committed to joining our event. Rigby's Barbershop will be giving haircuts from 9-11 and Primetime Liquors owned by our very own Dion Falzone will be serving Organic and Gluten free beer and wine.
 
 
 
Make sure to save the date on your calendar, July 13th, 9-3 PM. There is no better way to have a post 4th of July party than with your friends at the gym, sweet bounce houses, bad @ss haircuts, healthy yet tasty alcoholic libations, feats of strength (Push up, pull up, and rope contests) , supplement giveaways, and a very special international clothing vendor...
 
...bring at least 2-7 friends to join in on the fun.
 
Thank you all for the support and let's have a great deload week so we can crush max week a in 7 days!
