As you likely already know, longstanding CFE member, Whitney, was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and has quickly begun treatment. The long road ahead involves chemotherapy and an intense surgery followed by an additional round of chemo.
.
As you can imagine, in addition to the physical challenges, Whit and Vicki are also faced with the unexpected costs from time off work, unplanned travel and hotel stays as well as out of pocket expenses.
.
Whitney has an incredible support system between Vicki, friends and family and from work as well. He also might be the last person on Earth to ask for any help. But he and Vicki have a big fight ahead of them. Let's do what we do best and rally behind them to show they're not on this journey alone by taking one burden off their plate so they can focus on what matters most; GETTING HEALTHY.
.
And we're going to do that the only way we know how: by coming together to give a little sweat and show a lot of support. Join us Sunday 7/13 at 10am for a team of three workout (MMM, FFF), doors open at 9:30, Sunday morning classes will be cancelled.
.
We'll also have a fun floater workout and raffles where you can win thousands of dollars in prizes to your favorite local businesses. We'll provide food and refreshments and we'll even have a dunk tank where you can let your favorite coaches know how you really feel about them... 100% of every penny generated from the event, raffles and games will go to support Whitney. All are welcome. Bring your friends, family and kiddos too!
.
Here's how you can help:
Donations of any kind are truly appreciated, whether you're participating in the workouts or you'd just like to help. Each TEAM of three can buy into the event with a $300 (or more if you'd like) donation to Whitney's GoFundMe:

We are truly and genuinely grateful for everyone's support. So many of you have already come out of the woodwork and asked how you can help. So. As an added boost, the top 10 donations made will be entered into a lottery to win a FREE YEAR of membership to CFE!
