Another card for the grey challenge www.flickr.com/groups/heroarts/discuss/72157635157706766/... used the 3 gray inks from HA "Charcoal", Soft Granite" & "Wet Cement" with "Brush Strokes ACO26" and the flower from "Remember ACO28" inked with "PaleTomato". The sentiment is HA "Remember Your Kindness" CL649.
Starting an event at what is typically the hottest time of a summer day, 3 p.m., may have impacted participation Aug. 31 in the inaugural Area I Better Opportunities for Single Soldiers’ Spirit Challenge.
However, it certainly didn’t affect the enthusiasm shown by the 21 male and 2 female competitors or the spectators who made their way to Stewart Field on Camp Casey during the Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation Labor Day Festival.
At first glance the course appeared to be fairly tame.
“The course looked easy,” said Staff Sgt. Jason Knight, FMWR entertainment and events coordinator. “But factor in the single elimination and the rounds a competitor must make, then it becomes challenging.”
The obstacles and course covered the ballpark infield and used 50 yards of the adjacent access road as the start/finish track area for the event.
Taking the top spots were Sgt. Joe "Barefoot" Kaenel of B Battery, 6th Battalion, 37th Field Artillery Regiment and family member Kendra Cox.
“I had a great time competing,” said Cox. “Everyone was having a good time making it a fun atmosphere to be in. Area I BOSS has really grown in the last few years, now offering so many activities for the Soldiers and even family members.”
Cox and her husband Cpt. Timothy Cox are accustomed to hauling away Area I Sports’ hardware. And, this event certainly can lay claim to having one of the grandest trophies in the region.
“The traveling trophy will promote healthy competition,” said Knight. “Competitors can take pride in their personal achievement but it allows them to share the honor with their unit building esprit de corps .”
The trophy will be up for grabs once again at Camp Stanley’s Fall Fest Oct. 19 from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Do you know where you were, and what you were doing 30 years ago today @ 8:39 AM PST?
I remember, like it was yesterday exactly where I was, and what I was doing. I was a senior in high school and ironically I was in US History class watching the Challenger Space Shuttle launch live.
I think this stands out in the mind of everyone so vividly, because almost every school age student was watching the Challenger launch live. We watched the launch, because this was the first time that a civilian, a teacher (Christa McAuliffe) would be strapped to a rocket, and hurtled into space.
When the space shuttle disintegrated before our eyes, I think we all were in disbelief of what just happened. It was even more of a shock for our teachers. I am not sure they knew how to react after exposing all their students to an 80's version of a snuff film.
When all the dust settled, and all the investigating had been completed, and analyzed. It turns out the accident was caused by a faulty o-ring in the right or starboard side solid rocket booster.
For me, besides 9/11, the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster , is one of the most significant days in history, that I will never forget.
We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, this morning, as they prepared for their journey and waved goodbye and 'slipped the surly bonds of Earth' to 'touch the face of God.' - John Gillespie Magee, Jr.
"Sometimes, when we reach for the stars, we fall short. But we must pick ourselves up again and press on despite the pain." - U.S. President Ronald Reagan

In Week 49, we explored ways to create blur with our cameras through a variety of techniques.
This collage features photos from participating members. Find out more at Compositionally Challenged, where we aim to inspire creativity and improve our technical skills.
