Anyone Can Last 9 Rounds

As most of my friends know, I wouldn’t consider myself athletic.  I have spent money on gym memberships that were never used, purchased workout equipment that gathers dust in my garage, and I constantly admit that the only way I would choose to run, is if something were chasing me.

Columbia QuadSquad aided the Sumter Fly Girls in hosting the South Carolina Derby Expo at the Sumter Civic Center in Sumter, SC on November 11, 2012.

The Expo featured the Columbia QuadSquad Miss B-havers, Richland County Regulators, Sumter Fly Girls and Carolina Wreckingballs. Each of the women’s teams duked it out on the track in mini-bouts, with twenty minute halves. The Wreckingballs mixed it up with the women in the final bout of the evening for a co-ed scrimmage.

The expo featured local vendors and exhibitions by several of the Carolina Wreckingballs, who jumped over brave volunteers while on skates.

The featured charity for this event was Harvest Hope Food Bank. Donations were accepted at the door, and the non-perishable food items were taken to Harvest Hope just in time for the holiday season.

What a great way to wrap up the CQS season! Thanks to everyone involved!

July Charity – Midlands Blue Star Mothers: A Service Organization Supporting Our Military and Veterans

CQS is excited to partner with Blue Star Mothers of America for our July charity! The Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc. is a non-partisan, non-political organization who are mothers who now have, or have had, children honorably serving in the military. They are a non-profit (501[c]3) Veterans service organization supporting our military children while promoting patriotism. The Midlands Chapter is one of eight chapters in South Carolina carrying on the traditions of Blue Star Mothers of America.
