2021 Wrap-Up & Thank You's!
Hello all!
We hope you have had some time to recuperate and relax after an absolutely AMAZING weekend of 24 Hours of Heroes 2021! We are beyond grateful for the participation of everyone across our nationwide community - over 400 of you participating either remotely or at one of our nearly 20 host gyms.
With your help, we were able to raise OVER $75,000 in support of Wounded Warriors Canada and National Service Dogs (WOW)!!!
This is our biggest year to date, and the funds and awareness we have raised together will go a long way to support Veterans and First Responders living with PTSD.
We have a few big thank you's in order:
To all of our host gyms for their hard work to connect their communities for a great cause: Aduro Athletics, CrossFit Kvell, CrossFit Strathroy, OEVFITNESS, CrossFit Core KTown, West London CrossFit, Wholefit, Breaker Strength, Forest City CrossFit, MVMT Strength, CrossFit Exhale, Carbon Heights Fitness Academy, CrossFit Elgin, WorkHorse Strength and Conditioning, Full Metal CrossFit, CrossFit Oshawa, HMCS PREVOST, and Task Force CrossFit.
To all of our amazing sponsors for providing donations and prizing: 5.11 Tactical, Domus Developments, FitAid, Glassford Chrysler & Fresh Auto, HR Downloads, Lance Howard Group, LMNT, Modern Health and Performance, Moffatt and Powell, Oliver and Associates Realty, Simpson’s Fence, Gorila Fitness, AJ Stone, Yeti, Pak’d Pancakes, RivalUs Canada, truLocal, RPM Training, Hairstrong, UPS, Born Primitive, ivegotyourback911, and Tired Response.
Finally, a big shout-out to all of my fellow 24 Hours of Heroes team members: our Ambassadors Katie and Cass, our home base hosts Cheri and Bill, our behind-the-scenes queen Danielle, and especially to Jenn and Gord for their tireless work to make this event a success!
