As most of you know who read the blog, we have been competing in an online Welded competition called Hell of The West.   This was a nationwide competition that had over 500 participants competing in either the novice or open divisions.   The online competition ended a couple of weeks ago and Double Edge had both men and women in both division advance to the finals on October 3rd and 4th at the GSR!

Double Edge has teamed up with the Food Bank of Northern Nevada and Mckenna Berg of Keller Williams Reality to help families in our area receive a warm meal this holiday season.  We feel very blessed to have such a supportive community and we want to show how we can help fight hunger in America by asking our members to bring in one canned good or non-perishable food item.
