Registration

We will have the forms/flyers at the gym. You will sign up and pay at the gym.
What you need to do: get with your friends at the gym and get on a team! The more teams the better. This will be a great way for a lot of the beginners to enter their first competition and veterans can have a lot of fun throwing down as well. Nothing beats a bunch of team workouts.   More importantly it's for a great cause. Currently, we are the unhealthiest county in the state and one of the worst in the country. There are some folks out there trying to reverse that tide. The event will be open to the public and it's an opportunity to showcase all the great local gyms in the area.
