It’s always so fun to see new athletes push out of their comfort zones to compete. We had many first timers yesterday and couldn’t be more proud of their accomplishments. Way to go you guys!

We’ve said it once and we’ll say it a million times – thank you so much to our volunteers who helped us with our event. It ran smoother than our previous ones (how is that possible?!) and we have you all to thank. The equipment switches were fantastic and the judging was great. We really appreciate the time you took out of your Saturday to help us out.

Thank you to our head programmers – JD, Jason, Rob, KT. The workouts were fun and gave everyone a run for their money. Thank you for taking the time to ensure they were fair and challenging!

Last but definitely not least, thank you to DJ Rhyno for the great tunes and announcing throughout the event. You keep the day going and the energy levels high! We love having you.
