There are quite a few things going on here at RSBC and we want to make sure every stays up to date and informed.
Pillows With A Purpose
Rock Star Boot Camp is hosting “Pillows with a Purpose” during the month of April. Camper Linda McVey is collecting for the Sojourner Center here in Phoenix. There are two ways to participate. Details are on the attached flyer, as well as displayed at the warehouse. If you can, please help a family in a need.
A note from Linda: “Our company does Share the Comfort in April where we give back 15% off all our sales to women’s shelters across the country. I chose Sojourner Center in Phoenix for our donations locally. Obviously purchasing from me (bedding, bath, comfort clothes) is the best way to give back. However, 3 years ago I began Pillows for a Purpose. Women in these shelters leaving abusive relationships feel safe for the first time in a long time. The pillow becomes a symbol of the safeness they feel and it is something they no doubt cry into during their stay. It is the piece of bedding they take as they move through the shelter to a new level. I developed a video that Sojourner is using to inspire their donators during this month." More on the Sojourner Center here.
Cartwright School Fun Run 4/27
Rock Star has been given the opportunity to host an obstacle race at one of Phoenix's Elementary schools. The kids are going to get the chance to complete their own race; hop over hay bails, run a mile and crawl through mud and water. The students are SO excited! Curtis mentioned there is a young lady in a wheelchair who thought she would be left out... Left out? No way! That's not how we operate, that's not part of the Rock Star Code. We are going to make it possible for her to run this race with her friends carry her through/under/over every obstacle until we reach the finish line. Please mark this date on your calendar to come support and volunteer for the race!
Here are a few pictures from school's Fun Run assembly, and after school workout. Active kids make happy kids!

Spartan Sprint 2013
If you haven't signed up for the race yet, make sure you register and kick yourself into obstacle race, high gear training. Stay tuned for special news and events regarding the upcoming Spartan race training. RSBC has teamed up with Spartan to bring you an amazing event and we'll soon be enlisting volunteer team members to help organize and distribute materials. We've got less than a year to prepare for the race people, let's do this! Sign up here.
As an extension of Rock Star Boot Camp, this group will focus on nutrition, over all health, and our daily fitness journey. The group will not berate anyone on their eating habits; nor push one type of diet over another. Suggestions will be made, questions will be answered, and knowledge and experiences will be shared by all - but all aspects will remain positive. If you aren’t meeting your fitness goals, you will know why as you look back on your fitness and nutrition progression. Awareness is a large part of the battle. Be purposeful. Make smart choices and pay attention, day after day. Tracking these decisions will be the “writing on the wall” as to why you are, or are not, meeting your fitness and nutrition goals during this most-tempting time. We will be here to help along the way.
