The Thang
Pax did a slowsey with coupons over to the base of the tower where TBD provided the instructions. This thang would be similar to last year’s NYE beatdown with a few modifications. Pax will perform exercises that start with a letter from each month. Upon completion they will compete a run to a assigned location. Once all pax return and during recovery before the next exercise, TBD will call on a Pax to share a funny or proud moment from this past year in the gloom.

Dark Tower Year In Review By TBD
Disclaimer: I am not a professional poet… please don’t be offended if you were mentioned (it’s all out of love) and also if you weren’t mentioned as there are more poems to come in the future.
So many great things happened this year, I wasn’t sure where to start;
We said goodbye to a nantan legend FIB and replaced him with Badass Mr. Blart
New AOs have emerged and are growing by the hour
Hoping to be half as cool as us here at Dark Tower
Pax spread the word and brought many FNGs for us to anoint
Co-workers, Father in Laws, Neighbors even Rico’s twin brother fresh out the Joint
So many courageous new Pax stepped up for VQs whether or not they were ready
And had their mistakes were immediately corrected by my guy Cousin Eddie
The Christmas party had over 200 attendees which is so hard to believe
It was even more shocking to see how many of you married out of your league
Winter brings us longer nights and the days have gotten shorter
But growth continues and beatdowns are still served like an Onions restraining order.
As I reflect on this year, I consider each one of you my brother;
Lets take a few minutes reflecting on emotions that we shared with each other
Said goodbyes to Mrs D and Mertle, it’s always sad when a Pax leaves
A deep sadness like Baby Hands feels when he has to wear sleeves
We felt anticipation watching Snart’s digestive system’s many close calls;
Determination trying to complete Merkins while Noonans dog sniffed our balls
Felt Encouragement when Pax were sick or got hurt
Embarrassment when the DT crew took that pic with no shirts
Felt masculine watching Officer Smokey dominate IPC which he ultimately wins
Got in touch with our feminine side watching the Iron Lions give each other pretty pins
Fearful watching Smalls get attached by birds, dogs and squirrels
Felt laughter watching Jackie Chiles throw up doing curls
Curiosity when hearing Shoop and the other songs Wet Wipe would play
Confidence when AFib told us to “Hold On For One More Day”
We were intrigued learning more about each other over coffee or brews
Felt anger when we were forced to change our lunch place known for scenic views
We felt support for Pax reaching out when some of us were down
Inspiration watching TBD destroy opponents and winning the fantasy football crown
So cheers to each and every one of you brothers all as we put 2019 to rest
Let’s keep this momentum in 2020 showing why F3 Naper is one of the best
