CrossFit For a Cure Coming Saturday

CrossFit For a Cure http://cfforacure.wordpress.com/ is coming to CrossFit Lions and joining us for the 9am class this Saturday June 26th. Alex and Matt are traveling to 30 affiliates across the country raising money for the Alzheimer’s Society. There goal is to raise over $10,000. If we break that evenly across the 30 affiliates that is $333.00 they have to average. It would be great if we could do more than that. Please take a look at their mission statement below and their website/blog for more details. You can either donate directly on their site or I will have an envelope at the gym were donations will be accepted. Also it would be great if we could get as many people as possible working out in the 9am class. I'll have a good workout ready for ya.

CrossFitters For A Cure is a charitable event, the purpose of this event is to raise funds and bring awareness to the Alzheimer’s Society . CrossFitters For A Cure’s participants will travel across Canada, from Quebec to British Columbia, visiting over 30 affiliates. The following challenge has been issued to the participating affiliates and their athletes:
“We will come to your gym and complete the proposed WOD. We are asking the participants of this event to raise/donate money for the Alzheimer’s Society; donations can be made through the link on our blog. ‘CrossFitters For A Cure’ t-shirt will be given to the athelte that acheives the greatest result during the workout as well as the athlete that raises the most money for the cause, if donating online please print out the confirmation sheet and bring it to the workout. “
 In the spirit of competition, perseverance, and community our hope is to raise a total of $10,000 for the Alzheimer Society. We are confident that with the support of the CrossFit(c) community this event will be a success. All proceeds will be donated to the Alzheimer Society.
