Rocky Creek Connection PRESERVING

THE NIGHT SKY There is good news, however, this is a problem that is relatively easy to control and easy to “fix”. Unlike other forms of pollution that seem so insurmountable to cure, once we learn how to use proper lighting, the starry night can easily be restored. Modern and appropriately directed fixtures can keep light on the property and eliminate energy waste. This simple approach exemplifies energy conservation; respect for private property rights and makes for good neighbors. “The stars are the jewels of the night, and perchance surpass anything which day has to show.” - Henry David Thoreau

CROSSFIT Check out our Workout’s of the Day at

www.CrossFitHive.com

CrossFit begins with a belief in fitness. The aim of CrossFit is to forge a broad, general and inclusive fitness. We have sought to build a program that will best prepare trainees for any physical contingency — not only for the unknown, but for the unknowable. CrossFit is also the community that spontaneously arises when people do these workouts together. In fact, the communal aspect of CrossFit is a key component of why it’s so effective.
