Soldiers of Honor teaches the 4-Way Test.
Soldiers of Honor has been actively making a difference in the lives of youth in the Lima community for more than 30 years. Soldiers of Honor is a Boxing Boot Camp that teaches discipline, self control, and physical and mental well being using boxing techniques and training. Coach Aaron McLaurine told us that our youth are facing many challenges, so as part of their boxing drills, he teaches a word of the day to help motivate and encourage the students. Aaron brought five of his students and his wife, Veronica, to Rotary to demonstrate, and Larry Webb got in on the fun. As the boxers practiced, Aaron led Rotarians in the 4-Way Test and asked each boxer to tell him what the words mean to them. It was a fun and energizing meeting and Aaron is doing tremendous work with the youth in our community.
