Announcements:

"Gettin' Jack'd"

If you haven't heard yet, CFLI Women's Bootcamp is organizing a fundraiser to be held here on Sunday February 19th at 11:00am. All proceeds of this event will go towards the family of Jack Dono, nephew of CFLI die-hard Dianna Wittenhagen. Jack has a rare genetic disorder known as Menkes Disease, which effects his ability to absorb copper. Jack is in need of a specialized in-home adaptive chair, that is quite expensive, and not covered by his insurance. We have decided to use the unmatched strength of the CFLI community to team up and raise money for the chair! This event will be not only fun, and a great workout, but it will be benefiting a great cause as well!

We will be doing the Hero WOD "Jack" (10 min version), as well as a "Burpee-a-thon" to follow (10 minutes as well). Everyone will participate in the Hero WOD as part of their registration, and we will be doing an optional "Burpee-a-thon" afterwards as well. In order to participate in the Burpee-a-thon, you must raise at least $20 in sponsorship's (like the FGB fundraiser), but of course you can raise more. You will than have 10 minutes to do as many burpees as possible on the day of the event. FOR EACH BURPEE PERFORMED IN THOSE 10 MINUTES, CROSSFIT LONG ISLAND WILL DONATE AN ADDITIONAL 10cents TO THE FUND. (i.e. if we complete 5,000 burpees as team, the donation will be $500).


Registration Deadline: Saturday, January 28th (this Saturday)
Cost: $40 (Includes "Jack" WOD, food, drinks, raffles, and FREE T-Shirt!)

Register right away!

Apparel:

If you haven't picked up your apparel that you pre-ordered, it is now officially for sale. Sorry, you snooze you lose! We can't let this great gear sit on the shelves un-rocked.



The highest score on today's WOD will receive 2 tickets the super bowl and an all-expense paid round trip*!!
