Come and join us for the annual Hero Workout Chad and donate $10 by sending to Kody’s venmo @Kody-Knapp-34
Please arrive by 9:00 a.m for the National Anthem!

This year, our community will be honoring one of our own: Frederick Gerber, husband to Carrie Alexander and father to Simone Gerber.

Frederick was a Colonel in the U.S. Army Medical Service Corps. Special Forces- and Ranger-qualified, he served with both the Joint Special Operations Command and the 82nd Airborne Division. During his final deployment to Iraq, Frederick was wounded when struck by shrapnel from a sniper round—an attack for which he was awarded the Purple Heart. Among his many military achievements, he was also honored with two Bronze Stars.

Tragically, Frederick passed away on September 17, 2026, from the long-term effects of his combat injury.

Supporting the Family & Celebrating Simone

November 14th is also Simone’s birthday, making this gathering even more meaningful. To support Carrie and Simone, we are hosting a fundraiser alongside the workout with a $10 buy-in. Even better, Home to Heaven/Sheila Dye has generously offered to match every dollar we raise, doubling the impact of our community’s support!

Please join us at 9:00 AM on Saturday, November 14th as we come together to complete “Chad,” celebrate Frederick’s extraordinary service and heroism, wish Simone a happy birthday, and show this incredible family how much our community cares.

All fitness levels are welcome, and scaling options for the step-ups will be available. We look forward to seeing you there.
