Hey Crew!
We are super thrilled to announce Crossfit Zone will be participating in WOD for kids , an exciting event to help raise money for BC Children’s hospital. WOD for kids will be held on April 20th at Crossfit Zone’s Westshore location. Zoners will be crushing a WOD that will be announced on Friday April 12th. You will be doing it in style by rocking your fav pair of jean pants, shorts, jackets, headbands, or Daisy Dukes. Hey guys, those 80’s jean cut off short shorts I know they have been hiding in your closet for the last 15 years. And yes of course in true Crossfit spirit this not only a wicked fundraiser but competition too! There are 22 other boxes from across BC participating in this event. However, we are the only box from the Island, so lets show those mainlanders how it’s done!!!!!
Fundraising? The way Jeans day works is, you purchase a $5 “Jeans Day Button” by Thursday April 25th you can scrap the suit and tie and wear you’re fav pair of jeans to work. If you purchase a $20 “Lapel pin” you get to wear jeans to work all week! BC Children’s hospital has sent us a box containing “Jeans Day Buttons” and “Lapel Pins”. We will be selling them at both Crossfit Zone locations and you can choose to buy a $5 Jeans day pin, or a $20 Lapel pin. Cash donations are also greatly appreciated!!
On Saturday, April 20th rock your jean attire and your button and come down to Crossfit Zone Westshore location! If you have a buddy who you know has been eager to try Crossfit, bring em down!! Get them to fill in a “friend card” (they will also be distributed to both gyms) and purchase one of the $20 Lapel pins, or they can come down and make a donation the day of.
I greatly encourage you to try and sell buttons out in the community. There will be packages available containing 2 – $5 Jeans day buttons, and 2 – $20 Lapel pins. Ask your coach for one of these packages and sell the buttons to different people in the community. The packages will also have a friend card in them. (please try and get the friend card’s back to either Sandy or Myself so we can have an Idea of how many friends are going to come try CrossFit out)
The Event– WOD for Kids will be held Saturday, April 20th at the Westshore location. There will be an 8am, 9am, and depending on feedback we may add a 10am class into the mix (TBD – by Tuesday April 16th). There will be the “Jeans day WOD” that will be posted on the WOD for kids website on Friday, April. 12th. There will also be a scaled WOD for Crossfit newbees! This is a perfect time to invite a friend who has been humming and hawing about trying Crossfit! (just remember to get them to fill in a friend card and purchase a $20 Lapel pin) Oh yes and of course there will be prizes!!
- Superman (top male)
- Superwomen (top female)
- Survivor (top newbee)
- Best dressed!
So come on down!!! Its going to be a fun event for a wicked cause! Thank you for your time and see you all Saturday, April 20th!
