Mission: To empower our youth to face fears and conquer obstacles, knowing their worth, building self-worth as well as becoming stronger physically. Obstacle Racing, particularly in team racing, develops community, unity, strength and empowerment by helping others. No one is left out, left behind. If one person can’t do an obstacle, their teammate will help, or even do it for them. Everyone has their favorite strength and obstacle, together we face them and are victorious.
I understand that there are many things about Lionhearts Fitness that go completely against the grain, the “norm.” I have fought for these differences, since conception.
This is not a franchise, or a business.
It is a mission*
To start with:
FREE (My accountant scuffaws at this) Volunteers Only
Then, the more acceptable:
No Phone Zone No Bully Zone , zero tolerance
Then we have:
We have no age or ability segregation. We are team building with a small branch of competition. We are not competitive to present winning as a goal.
We compete to bring awareness to the overall goal, mission*. Ocr Luccketta demonstrates this. Our Mentors, do the same.
Serving the community, serving our fellow, not to magnify the person, but to magnify the mission*.
We want to accomplish this mission, every day. Thank you, everyone. It is an honor to be on this journey together.
Old News but applicable.
We do so with everything from Obstacle Course Racing, Fishing, Art, Theater, (We are even starting our own chess club!)
We have seasonal camps, such as baseball camp, basketball, theater camps, all free to the youth, serving N. Georgia and E. Tennessee.
We are a NO PHONE Zone! Phones are all put away and we have no screens, just PLAY!
ZERO tolerance for bullying, only team building, and community building.
We have become the largest Spartan youth team (in just under a year,) In the WORLD! We had nearly 30 youth getting their “Spartan Kids Trifecta Medals,” our first year. That means that they all raced a minimum of 3 races in the season! Traveling out of state for many events. This was all provided by our community. Our community for the community.
The only requirement for membership is to participate in monthly, community service, with your fellow Lionhearts!
We have adopted a creek, we have fed the hungry, provided warmth in blankets and jackets to the local homeless and so much more.
We started this organization in December 2018 and the youth have poured in!
