CROSSFIT FOR HOPE
****************************
Saturday is the day!  Come on down to the gym and give  HOPE to some little ones!  Details are below on the June 9th WOD.

If you can't attend, you can still donate some money to the HOPE cause!  Our gym's goal is $2000.  So far we have raised $605!  We will take donations at the gym.

There are going to be people from other CF boxes, guests that have never done CF before, and kids.  Please invite your friends and family to participate.  Even if they don't want to workout, they can come and count or just watch how we throw down.

We will meet at the gym at 1pm.  We will warm up and go over the skills for the WOD.  Everyone will be partnered up for counting reps, watching form, and motivation!

After the sweat, blood and tears are done, we will go to SOMEWHERE IN AUGUSTA  to chow down.  We have the back room from 3-5pm.

New for week of: 5-28 WODS are below!

Happy Memorial Day!  Thank you to all of our military folks who make it possible for our freedom in the USA!  Hope everyone had a restful long weekend!  Ours was productive but not restful!  Moving into our 9th place of residence...functional movements for 3 days!




Memorial Day MURPH!


Pictures are on the Facebook page!!  The WOD went great!  Or awful...depending on how you look at it.  There are a lot of injured people out there right now that had to modify or not participate.  We will be doing Murph again in about a month on a Saturday morning.  We will let you know ASAP when the fun torture will be!


T-Shirt and Hat Order:


We will have the order up until Friday.  If you don't like the saying, "What doesn't kill you makes you hotter" you can have, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" or no saying at all.  You now have 3 choices of hats.


CROSSFIT FOR HOPE!


Please sign up for CROSSFIT FOR HOPE!!!!  Sign up at the gym if you are coming!!  I have contacted the other CrossFits in the area and they are coming down to WOD with us!  Let's get ready for some outside competition and fun!  This is also a great way to introduce your friends and family to CF.  We have scaled and kids events planned!  Even for people to just come down and watch you sweat it out and support a great cause would be fun for them!
