Let the NEW challenge begin!

We have officially started our second challenge of no missing work until May 1st. It lasts a month and a half. Can we do it? Yes, we can! There is no holding us back at this point! We are a team and we will encourage each other to do our best. Individually, we will do our best. I saw many of you at the Outlaws' home opener Sunday afternoon. What a great game!
