HOA 3 Judge/Volunteer Meeting October 2nd

Greetings Judges and Volunteers for the 2011 Heart of America CrossFit Affiliate Competition!!!

First things first, I'd like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you for your willingness to contribute your time and energy at H.O.A 3 this November 4th-6th. The competition is fast approaching (It'll be here in just 6 weeks)! In an effort to be as prepared as possible on gameday, I'd like to invite you to attend an HOA Judge & Volunteer meeting at 3PM Sunday, October 2nd at CrossFit Springfield. At the meeting we'll designate each volunteer with a job or task for the event, discuss HOA logistics and layout, and answer any questions. For our judges, the plan for the evening is to brief you on all of the movement standards with 2011 HOA lead judge, Corey Lewis of CrossFit Valley Park. Corey was the head judge at 2010 HOA and will be making the trip to Springfield from St. Louis for the judging clinic.

Most of our volunteers are from CFS so travel won't be an issue. If you're from out of town or simply have another obligation on the evening of the 3rd and won't be able to make the meeting, we'll be sure to assign a sweet responsibility to you (something like "official HOA puke cleaner-upper") in your absence :) There are tons of tasks that will need to be done from now until Friday, November 4th! If you'll be able to attend please RSVP as soon as possible to melissawistrom@hotmail.com.

If you haven’t yet registered to judge or volunteer at HOA 3 and still would like to, please get signed up HERE. Thanks again for your help this year and we'll look forward to seeing everyone on Oct 2nd at 3pm!

Cheers,

Jeremy Mhire, Co-Owner CFS

Judges & Volunteers Make It Happen

The 2011 Reebok CrossFit Games were the 5th installment of the worldwide search to find the fittest athletes on the planet. Because of the size and magnitude the event has become, more individuals from the CrossFit community than ever before were called upon to volunteer their time, energy, talents, and efforts in order to pull off such a well run competition. The 2011 Heart Of America CrossFit Affiliate Team Competition is still in need of individuals with the same desire to assist in making our event live up to the high standards set forth by the competitive CrossFit Community. If you are not competing at HOA III, please consider participating in the action by signing up to judge or volunteer at the event from November 4th-6th.

Thanks so much to the many men and women who have already graciously accepted this invitation! 3..2..1..GO!!!
