Debbie Rominger charity WOD held at BattleBorn Wednesday April 9th 2014


Debbie WILL NOT be able to get lifesaving surgery if we can't raise enough money.  Her insurance may cover nothing.  At best, it will cover half.  This leaves her with a bill of AT LEAST $100,000! 

This event is meant to be done in YOUR gym with YOUR peeps.  We want every box in the world to come together and support Debbie.  The leaderboard is shared.  But the experience of supporting Debbie is something that each box will have within their own community.  You are part of a great and supportive community within your box.  And that box is part of a much larger community.  We want each small community to band together with every other small community to create a worldwide virtual event that will hopefully raise enough money to save Debbie's life!

More About This Event:

CFI is raising money to support a loved one within the family at CFI, Debbie Rominger.  Debbie has been diagnosed with a very rare and very aggressive form of cancer.  Debbie has been relentless in her support of any noble cause that crosses her path.  We are still in shock.

CFI and Debbie's hope is that each box in Northern Nevada, California, heck!... The WORLD, will participate in this virtual event.  At CrossFit Initiative, they are doing this workout on April 4th at 6pm. 
 
We are doing it Wednesday April 9th. 
 
You can register for the event, and donate that way, or since we are doing it as part of our regular programming - I am hoping to get your donations here at BBCF, in any form you can donate from the CHANGE IN YOUR CAR to a small amount you might have in your pocket - every little bit helps!
If you want to be part of the leader board, you can register here and email your scores to Soupha@crossfitinitiative.com.  Your scores will be entered and you will show up on the scoreboard. 
 
Also, I would love for you too all wear something purple so we can show even more support and take a group picture, Then CFI will get it on Debbie's webpage. 
We are all very hopeful that this event will spread like wildfire and Debbie will not only get much needed financial support, but that she will feel the love of the CrossFit Community!  Because the creators of ABoxAbove Tournament are personal friends of Debbie, all fees will be donated back to her.  Let's support this wonderful woman in her hour of need!
