Olympics


Well the Olympics will officially end on Sunday for most of the world but here at Battalion 3445 the Olympic spirit won't end until Tuesday night. We don't have fancy medals like the Olympics, we have a big trophy for the winner. Jerrod has been the winner the last two years so make sure you all show up this week. We had a request for a new event from Pascal so that should be interesting. Don't miss this week it is going to be a great time.

Stay tuned to find out about a trip to Grand Forks for some ice hockey on spring break.

Creation Schedule


I just saw the Creation Schedule for this year and wow does it look good. As if you need more incentive to memorize but here is how it looks!

Wednesday Night:
David Crowder
Switchfoot

Thursday Night:
Hillsong
Newsboys

Friday Night:
Thousand Foot Krutch
tobyMac
(this should be the best night)

Saturday Night:
Tenth Avenue North
Skillet

Skillet's show last year was in at another level than all the rest last year and that is probably why they get to close the event this year. I expect that TFK, after missing last year because of Trevor's appendix, will step it up and Toby's show is always awesome. Switchfoot apparently is amazing live, this will be the first time I have seen them. I think all of these bands also have new albums out as well so pick those up and start singing along.

Back on the fringe stage are Classic Crime, B. Reith (one of my faves), also KJ-52 will be on the main stage one afternoon as well as on the fringe stage. This trip is going to be a good one. GET THOSE VERSE DONE!!!!

What you missed!!!


Well if you haven't been to Battalion for a while then you are not alone. Attendance has been a bit low for the last month so we were surprised to have 12 last night. Last week we had the Tower of Babel, with some new building materials. It was fun but I may have to modify the quantities for next year. If you happened to miss this week you missed the biggest injury we have ever had at Battalion. Simon and Stephen went into the wall hard during Bulldog and Simon came out on the losing end. He had a bloody gash on the back of his head. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of that. Anyway I hope you are feeling OK Simon.

The number of verses that guys are memorizing seems to have dropped as well. You all still have time to finish.

This weekend is winter camping. You guys who are coming, we will see you on Saturday.
