MGRS at Strive Rocks 2019

 

 
We had fun at the Civic Center on Saturday with the folks who came to Strive, and helped lots of kids run trains.

We had four young members helping at Strive. Brennan Long came with his grandmother and worked on both setup and showing others how to run the trains. Hunter, Deven, and Lucas Weeks helped with setup, running trains and the move out. Their Dad Scott brought them in and stayed with us at Strive.
