Announcing the 10th Annual Holiday Rowing Challenge!
The Holiday Challenge begins November 26 (U.S. Thanksgiving) and ends December 24 (Christmas Eve). For every person who rows or skis* at least 100k during the challenge, Concept2 will donate $.02 per kilometer (1000 meters) to your choice of the following organizations: Oxfam International, Slow Food USA, Feeding America or The Center for an Agricultural Economy. And once you get beyond 100k, we'll donate $.04 per kilometer. Our goal through this group effort is to raise a total of $30,000 to support these causes. The usual prizes of a pin and certificate will still be awarded. Note: For kids and adaptive participants, the $.04 rate will take effect at 50k.

Train The Trainer And Feed The Hungry!!
December 5, 2009 was a great opportunity for the clients of CrossFit Ancaster and Steel City CrossFit Hamilton to come together and get some much anticipated revenge on their CrossFit Coaches and Trainers. There was allot of hard work and a load of fun had by all. A great cause was well supported as well. We collected well over 20 coats and 2 big boxes of food to add to the Ancaster Fire Department's toy and food drive.
