💜 Move with Purpose This September 💜
As our community heads back to school, we’re inviting you to move with purpose while honoring the memory of Nick Widener.

Beginning with the start of the school year and continuing throughout the month of September, all proceeds from our Tuesday 7:00 PM Cardio Dance class will be donated to the Nick Widener Memorial Scholarship Fund.

Whether you’re a regular or you’ve been thinking about trying a class, September is the perfect time to join us. Bring a friend, get moving, and help invest in the future of local students while honoring Nick’s legacy.

Every class attended makes a difference.

💜 Move with Purpose
📅 Every Tuesday from now through September
🕖 7:00 PM Cardio Dance
📍 Resilient Health & Wellness Studios

Together, let’s turn movement into something that gives back.

Earlier this month we traveled to Branson
to participate in the Tri-Lakes Shootout
Basketball Camp.

When the Director of the camp received
word about Nick, he immediately
reached out to me to offer his condolences.
And to say he was putting a check in
the mail to go toward setting up a
Memorial Scholarship in Nick’s name.
One that he would like to be presented to
a 2027 Senior Bearcat Basketball player.

On behalf of our Bearcat Basketball Program
and Nick’s family, we are truly humbled and honored by this incredible gesture.

If anyone would like to contribute to
Nick’s Memorial Scholarship,
please contact me, Coach Denton
or my wife, Missie Denton.

Lord I come, I confess
Bowing here, I find my rest
Without You, I fall apart
You're the one that guides my heart
Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour, I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You 🕊️

We love you, Conner.
We’ve struggled to find the right words,
because there are none.
We missed you on the court this
past season, but absolutely loved
watching you on the field.
But, the thing we will miss the most
is your contagious, genuine,
soul lifting smile.
We watched with joy as you got baptized,
and are finding peace in knowing
you are in our Father’s arms
and we will get to see that smile
again one day 💜💛🫶🏻

Lord, if ever we needed You, it is now.

We love you, Nick.
There are no words to express
how much you will be missed.
Or how much our hearts ache.
Your absence will be felt on the court
and off the court. But, we will rest in
His assurance, that this separation is
only temporary. So, until we meet again,
keep working 2! 🏀💜💛
—Coach & Missie Denton

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
