Get Jack’d!

Keep on truckin' folks...this tough week isn't slowing down yet!

Gettin Jack'd

Registration for our upcoming fundraiser is filling up quick! It thrills me to see the CFLI community reaching out and helping such a great cause. Just to remind you....

Jack Dono is the nephew of CFLI die-hard, Dianna Wittenhagen. Jack is a wonderful 9-year old boy who is diagnosed with Menkes Disease, a rare genetic disorder that affects the body’s ability to absorb copper. Jack is in need of a new in-home adaptive chair. Unfortunately this chair is not covered under insurance. All proceeds from this event will go towards Jack’s new chair with any additional proceeds going to his school. Let’s help this amazing boy get his new chair!

Everyone who registers will be participating in 10 minute version of the Hero WOD "Jack", as well as receive a FREE t-shirt, and plenty of food and drinks.

There will also be an option to participate in the "Burpee-a-thon" that will follow the WOD. This will require you to raise at least $20 to participate, similar to our Fight Gone Bad fundraiser. You can ask friends, family, co-workers, etc to sponsor you by donating $5, $10, or however much they please. As long as you raise atleast $20, you can participate in the Burpee-a-thon. You will have 10 minutes to complete as many burpees as possible (sounds like fun, right? But it's for a good cause). For every burpee you complete, CFLI will donate 10 cents to the fund.

This format will help us raise money in a few different ways. For example:

Roger Deadliftington registers for Gettin Jack'd...

$40

Roger gathers small donations from co-workers and family over the next few weeks accumulating....

$55

Roger than completes 140 burpees during the 10 min period. On his behalf, CFLI donates...

$14

So for a few fun hours, filled with food, friends, and lots of sweat, Roger raises...

$109 for a great cause!

When: Sunday February 19th
Time: 11am
Where: CFLI
Cost: $40 (must raise an additional $20 to compete in Burpee-a-thon)
Registration deadline: Saturday January 28th


Let's rally the troops and knock this out of the park! Of course there will be scaling options for the Hero WOD and everyone is encouraged to participate! If you cannot make it that day, donations will be excepted at any time, and every little bit helps.
