Saturday Fundraiser!
REMINDER!
This Saturday, June 21, CrossFit Somerville will be running a charity WOD at the normal class time. The Squats for a School WOD will benefit Empower Charter School, the first charter school with CrossFit Kids written into the charter petition. “Empower will also integrate health/wellness into the regular school curriculum, and educate parents and the community about how to promote wellness at home.”
With obesity on the rise among children and many public education systems getting rid of physical education programs due to lack of funding, Empower Charter School is hoping to make youth physical fitness a priority. As a CrossFit Athlete, you understand the importance of physical fitness, and ingraining a mentality towards health and wellness from a young age.
The WOD will be run during our regular 10am Saturday class time, and is easily accessible for all ability levels. The requested donation for this WOD is $15, and will be in place of the standard Saturday drop-in fee. If you are planning on using one of your regular weekly classes for Saturday, a donation is not required but would be appreciated.
