Well, we have successfully completed another amazing Eagan

Well, we have successfully completed another amazing Eagan Funfest! As I said in my previous post, this is one of my favorite events. This year’s event did not disappoint: the weather was gorgeous for all three days, and we met some great people. My hope is that we can turn those people into great students some day.

Speaking of great students, I am most impressed that all my student helpers did such a wonderful job. Despite the fun sights and sounds and food (yeah, I know I am supposed to be eating clean… but it was my one-time-only cheat day – 3 days to be exact!) at these events, they are also a lot of work. We put lots of effort into showing people what we can do and how great our academy is. None of this would be possible if not for those brave students who come out to volunteer their time and energy. These men, women and children decided to spend their 4th of July with me at a booth next to a carnival, telling people about how much they love our gym and teaching them some of what we do. They did it with the best of attitudes and with huge smiles on their faces. I feel blessed when I think about all they did.

In short, I would like to say thank you to all of our volunteers for everything! You guys and gals are the lifeblood of our academy, and I am honored to be your instructor and your friend. Thank you all, and I can’t wait for the next big event to see you all shine once more.
