Who We Are
About B.E.E.R.
Year 2 at Newnan Country Club · October 29, 2026
A DAD. A CRAZY IDEA. A MOVEMENT.
Tom Crymes built Tomco Construction from the ground up. He's spent 29 years doing things the hard way — with integrity, grit, and no shortcuts.
Then he watched his son Thomas compete in endurance events for charity. Big ones. The kind that leave you exhausted just reading about them. Tom watched, and had one very Tom Crymes thought:
WOW. WE NEED SOMETHING LIKE THAT FOR OLD MEN.
— Tom Crymes, Founder
And just like that, B.E.E.R. was born.
The first race was 2023. Fifteen guys. A handful of cold beers. Absolutely zero certainty that anyone would finish without pulling something. They loved every minute of it.
Three years later we're heading into Year 4 with 60 spots, sold-out sponsorships, and more money raised for the Coweta Samaritan Clinic than anyone thought possible from a group of guys who thought a timed chug was a reasonable athletic event.
Sponsorships open now. Individual tickets available August 2026.

FROM 15 GUYS AND A BIG HEART TO A MOVEMENT.
The first ever B.E.E.R. Heptathlon. Nobody knew what they were doing. Everyone had a great time.
Tomco donated $10,000 to the clinic — covering the gap out of pocket.
Word spread. More teams. More sponsors. More chaos. The Coweta Samaritan Clinic started seeing real impact.
Moved to Newnan Country Club. Sponsorships sold out. The standard was set.
Tomco donated $10,000 to the clinic — again.
Back at Newnan Country Club. 60 spots. Sold-out sponsorship history. This is the year we hit the goal on our own.
