The “Come to the Well” event has been inspired by those in Chad, Africa (part of the Sub-Saharan desert) who strive to survive everyday without clean water. You can visit HERE to see pictures of what Hope Springs International (the group we are teaming up with) has been able to do already in DonoManga, Chad already. However, there is still a massive NEED for clean water and we are helping them get the machinery transported from the United States to Chad, Africa and we could use your help! HOW???

WHAT CONT’D: COMPASS is a vehicle for strengthening public schools by using all available community resources. Our mission is to promote student success by developing partnerships between the business community and Sumner County Schools. Partners are businesses, organizations, churches and individuals giving their time, money and/or resources. Partners donate money, coupons as incentives, used computers, a field trip opportunity, etc. Many are classroom readers, tutors, mentors, spelling bee judges and even hallway painters. We work closely with the Board of Education to assure that our objectives are aligned with those of the school system. The program is to compliment and augment the system by involving the private sector.

1. What is Fight Gone Bad?
It is a CrossFit workout, described HERE: In this workout you spend one minute at each of five stations, resulting in a five-minute round after which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating.
This event calls for three rounds. The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of ‘rotate,’ the athletes must move to the next station immediately. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower, where each calorie is one point.
The stations are:
1. Wall-ball, 10 ft target (Reps
)2. Sumo deadlift high-pull (Reps)
3. Box jump (Reps)
4. Push-press (Reps)
5. Row (Calories)
2. Can anyone do it (any athlete/fitness level/new member or old, etc.)?
Yes, just like each workout we do at the gym it is scaleable. We will have set scaling options available, divided into classes:
Class A: Standard Men = 75lb push-press and sumo deadlift high pull, 20lb wall- ball and 20 inch box jump
