Come One, Come All!

As many of you know, the 2014 CrossFit Open starts up this Thursday and will run for the next five weeks. We are going to make an event out of it this year and hold a special time each week where those athletes who have officially signed up. Each Friday at 6:30pm the gym will go into Open-mode. At this time athletes can get judged to officially submit their scores. The regular 6:30pm class will be postponed until after the Open.
