The luncheon Keynote speaker is Dale King. Born and raised in Portsmouth, he moved away to attend college at Capital University and later served in the US Army. Upon leaving the military, he returned home to open PSKC CrossFit in 2010 in order to build a stronger community that had been ravaged by a depressed economy and opioid addiction. Dale would later go on to co-found Team Some Assembly Required focused on the American adaptive athlete. His third venture, Doc Spartan, made its way to national TV by appearing in Season 8 of ABC’s Shark Tank, eventually landing a deal with Robert Herjavec. A year after airing, Herjavec named Doc Spartan one of his best deals in the history of the show. Dale has a passion for helping others through fitness and business development. He believes that through the persistent conquering of challenges a more successful and strong person is built.
