April 18, 2008 - Petrik hired to take on a new leadership role
Cross Training coach, Jim Petrik, grew up attending camp and has been a huge asset as a coach for over six years now. He has been asked to take on a new leadership role (as lead coach) in the gym this 2008 season. We are excited that God has blessed us to have someone like Jim to continue his involvement in our ministry!

April 11, 2008 - We Need Your Help!
This summer we are going to be collecting testimonials of campers, coaches, parents and whomever else has been blessed through Cross Training. If you would be interested in writing a brief summary (250-300 words) of your walk with Christ, we would love to publish it in our TESTIMONIAL BOOK! Please email crosstraining@midconetwork.com for more information. This is a great way to share with others your experiences and touch lives in away you never thought possible!

March 14, 2008 - ON THE ROAD - Alexandria High School
 Once again, Bob and Russ are on the road and this time it's to Alexandria, MN. It's always great to go into a new school system where Bob has never been seen before. You should see the kids when they see his chalk media for the first time! It is truly a sight to see! His feedback was once again spectacular and he and Russ will hopefully be making their way back to the Minnesota area soon.

March 12, 2008 - Bob "WOW'S" Massachusetts State Student Council
Four years ago, Bob Upgren had the unique opportunity to speak to thousands of kids in Massachusetts during their state student council convention. Massachusetts opened its arms once again to Bob's chalk media, but was swept away even more with his amazing ability to captivate audiences and bring Christ to the front platform in a public school setting. With standing ovations left and right, Bob was able to speak directly to kids in a positive manner and was given outstanding feedback in each of his keynotes and breakout sessions.
